DXi6900 Deduplication Appliance
Enterprise deduplication powered by StorNext 5, accelerates storage workflows for datacenters, multi-site and cloud environments needing performance, scalability and operational efficiencies. 

The DXi6900 provides these unique benefits:

Maximizes Disk Storage Utilization | Patented variable-length deduplication maximizes data reduction, providing lowest opex and maximizing efficiencies locally, in the cloud and across WANs. 

Improves Backup and Restore Times | Powered by the world’s most powerful file system, StorNext® 5, DXi® software enables faster deduplication and access to your data. 

Deploys for Today, Scales for Tomorrow | Broadest scalability from 17TB to over 510TBs with Quantum’s own Capacity-on-Demand methodology.
Protects Data Across Sites and in the Cloud | WAN efficient replication makes it faster and less expensive to move data in and out of the cloud and between sites for offsite backups. 

Provides Built-In Management for Smarter Operations and Lower Opex | Comprehensive and intuitive management tools enable precise business decisions and speed resolution time. 

Provides Military-Grade Encryption with no Performance Impact | Protect against data breaches across the enterprise using industry-standard AES 256-bit encryption with Self-Encrypting Drives. This is also applied to data-in-flight. 


  DXi6900 Control Node The brains of DXi6900, capable of supporting additional network connectivity and internal hardware to support 510TB of usable capacity, all in 2U of rack space.       DXi6900 Control Node - No Bezel Comes fully populated with enough high speed metadata drives for up to 510TB of usable capacity.       DXi6900 Small Configuration Base configuration ships with one 2U Control Node and a minimum of one 2U disk expansion module. Each expansion module supports 34TB of usable capacity, licensed in 17TB increments.       DXi6900 Small Configuration - Back Provides 10GbE, 1GbE and 8GB FC connectivity standard with room to add four additional 1GbE ports or two additional 10GbE.The DXi6900 also supports redundant pathways to user data.       DXi6900 Full Rack Using 4TB drives a fully populated DXi6900 achieves 510TB usable capacity or 7.2PB logical capacity in only 32U of rack space.
