Symmetrix DMX800 networked storage system
Overview
|
The Industry’s First Modular High-End Storage Array The Symmetrix DMX800 networked storage system dramatically lowers cost of entry to high-end storage
systems. The industry’s first modular, high-end storage array, the DMX800 delivers the power of the Symmetrix DMX Series to more applications,
users, and locations.
The DMX800 shares many components with the mid-tier CLARiiON CX
family, but it’s a true Symmetrix DMX, leveraging the groundbreaking Direct Matrix technology. Because of its modular packaging, the CX800 can be deployed outside of a data
center. And

upgrading from the CLARiiON CX series to the DMX800, with its maximum usable capacity of 15.3
TB, is as simple as swapping controllers. With up to 120 drives and 16 front-end
channels, the DMX800 is an attractive fit, offering more performance in a smaller
footprint, for customers who use today’s single-bay Symmetrix 8530 models in open systems
environments. |
DMX800 Features
include:
- New modular packaging
- Up to 120 drives
- 16 2Gb Fibre Channel front-end ports
- Up to 32 GB cache
- 16 2 Gb Fibre Channel back-end channels
- No raised floor or dedicated cooling required
Unmatched availability The DMX800 includes more redundancy to cache and power supplies—and new features like end-to-end data integrity validation and Triple Module Redundancy with Majority
Voting. And as always, EMC Symmetrix networked storage sets the availability standard with continuous monitoring, integrity
checking, fault isolation, and "phone-home" remote diagnostics.
Richest functionality The DMX800 employs
Enginuity, the most intelligent and thoroughly field-proven storage operating environment on the
market. And it runs EMC’ s complete suite of storage management software—the richest in the industry—for absolute functional compatibility with previous generations
