Product Overview

The DXi2500-D disk backup and replication appliances use Quantum’s data 

de-duplication technology to expand the amount of backup data users can 

retain on fast-recovery RAID systems by 10 to 50 times. The result is a cost-

effective way for IT departments to store backup data on disk for months 

instead of days, providing high speed, reliable restores, increasing available 

data recovery points, and reducing media management. For disaster 

recovery in distributed environments, the DXi2500-D system makes 

automated WAN replication practical by dramatically reducing the 

bandwidth required to move backup data securely between sites. 

DXi2500-D solutions are integrated systems that are easy to install and use 

with all leading backup applications. They provide best-in-class 

performance and flexible, easy-to-use NAS interface and Ethernet 

connectivity. DXi2500-D appliances are part of a comprehensive set of 

backup solutions, serviced and supported by Quantum, the leading global 

specialist in backup, recovery, and archive.

Each system comes with an accessory kit containing rack-mount hardware 

and a Documentation CD which includes the 

User’s Guide
