consumption.
■
Provides high-capacity intra-appliance switching
bandwidth, along with high I/O throughput.
■
Available internal storage capacities of 9 TB, or 36 TB
without optional external storage shelves. The available
capacity can be allocated either in part or in whole to a
deduplication pool or to an AdvancedDisk pool
(non-deduplicated storage).
Performance and capacity
64GB, up to a maximum of 512GB
Note:
When you purchase the first expansion storage
shelf, the Storage Expansion kit that comes with the storage
shelf includes a replacement of 256GB memory. A Memory
Expansion kit containing eight 32GB DIMM memory chip
is needed to support the fifth storage shelf.
System memory configuration
(DIMMS)
The deduplication engine provides up to 100 times
reduction in storage. The client-side plug-in provides similar
levels of bandwidth reduction.
Space reduction
Due to fingerprinting and RAID redundancy, the overall
storage capabilities are not a simple multiplication of the
disk size and the total number of disks.
Scalable architecture
Supports redundant hot-swappable disks and power
modules.
