DXi3500 is a disk backup solution that supports high-end deduplication technology, which can be easily purchased, installed and managed. Excellent disk performance can ensure a shorter backup time interval, while the powerful deduplication technology can reduce the capacity requirement by 90% or more, and make remote replication a viable disaster recovery tool for branch and remote institutions. As a result, the backup and recovery speed is greatly improved, media management is further simplified, and the overall cost is significantly reduced.
The DXi3500 appliance delivers an intuitive graphical user interface for local and remote management and supports both NAS (CIFS/NFS) and virtual tape library (Fibre Channel or iSCSI) interfaces. Its patented de‑duplication technology can reduce disk capacity requirements by 90% or more, while built‑in replication enables disaster‑recovery across branch offices.
Technical specifications include usable capacities from 1.2 TB to 4.2 TB, raw capacities from 2 TB to 6 TB, up to 8 NAS shares, 8 virtual tape libraries, 64 virtual tape drives, and a maximum backup throughput of 290 GB per hour. The appliance fits a 2U rack, measures 19 in × 3.5 in × 27 in, weighs 50 lb, and operates on 100‑240 V AC with a 4 A current draw. This manual is written in Chinese.
