Function Specification List
The ETERNUS DX provides various functions to ensure data integrity, enhance security, reduce cost, and optimize
the overall performance of the system.
The ETERNUS DX integrates block data (SAN area) and file data (NAS area) in a single device and also provides
advanced functions according to the SAN or NAS connection.
These functions enable users to respond to problems from various situations.
The ETERNUS DX has functions such as the SAN function (supports block data access), the NAS function (supports
file data access), and basic functions that can be used for both SAN and NAS connections.
For more details about basic functions, refer to
"2. Basic Functions" (page 33)
functions that are used for a SAN connection, refer to
