Fujitsu has focused on these customer trends and priorities with its ETERNUS DX family of disk storage systems. ETERNUS DX is designed to address the most crucial challenges faced by storage and IT managers today.

ETERNUS DX disk storage systems – the most reliable and secure data safes:

For small and medium-sized businesses, ETERNUS DX60, DX80, and DX90 provide fast and highly available data. For mid-range and enterprise customers who need secure and flexible integration into the data center, Fujitsu offers the ETERNUS DX400 series and ETERNUS DX8000 series. ETERNUS DX disk storage systems use the same software stack and hardware functions across the entire range to allow ease-of-use and greater efficiency for users.

ETERNUS SF – Fujitsu's Storage Management Software – reduces total cost of ownership by simplifying the monitoring and management of ETERNUS DX disk storage systems. Furthermore it helps to achieve business continuity by leveraging the Advanced Copy functions for data backup, using snapshots and clones. Altogether, with ETERNUS SF, storage resources in complex IT environments are optimized.

As one of the world's leading IT services companies, Fujitsu combines many years of experience in complex data centers to offer tailor-made solutions that perfectly fit customers' individual requirements. Moreover, Fujitsu is one of the few global players to provide flexible infrastructures with its Dynamic Infrastructures strategy: server, storage, networking and service solutions – all from one trusted partner.

The DX400 is a highly scalable, modular storage consolidation platform designed for high reliability and cost-effective performance. It offers many advanced storage attributes and functionality derived from Fujitsu’s mainframe roots—attuned to the needs of midsized businesses:

Capacity and Performance Scalability – The DX400 scales to 418 TB and incorporates 2.83GHz quad core processors to significantly increase performance over previous generations.

Data Integrity – ETERNUS DX offers data block checking and RAID6 (double parity) support.

Enhanced Security - Integrated hardware-based data encryption, both ‘on the fly’ for remote copy functions and ‘at rest’ to secure data on drives removed from service, secure users’ data.

Data Protection and Availability - A variety of high-speed internal and external volume copy functions provide high availability and business continuance.

Flexible Management and TCO Reduction - Capacity on Demand (CoD), online data migration, and thin provisioning (capacity virtualization) enable better utilization of resources with no disruption to operations.

Green IT – Power and cooling requirements are reduced with Eco-mode using MAID technology and low-power, high performance Enterprise SSD support.
