Enterprise Core Data Protection
Ideal for protecting mission-critical databases, virtualized environments, and application data in central data centers where performance and reliability are paramount.
Cyber Recovery Repository
Serves as a secure, isolated recovery target for backup copies, enabling restoration of clean data following ransomware or other cyber attacks.
Physical Profile
The appliance occupies 3 rack units (3U) with dimensions of 3.43" height, 17.56" width, and 30.31" depth, designed for standard 19-inch rack installation. This compact footprint maximizes storage capacity per rack unit while ensuring adequate airflow for cooling in dense data center environments.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 3.43" (87.12 mm), 17.56" (446.02 mm), 30.31" (769.87 mm). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.
