Quantum Corporation announced two new high-capacity models in its all-flash DXi®? T-Series data protection line: the DXi T-10-240 and DXi T-10-480. As the industry's first 1U high-performance deduplication appliances with up to 480 TB of raw NVMe capacity, these systems enable customers to protect more data in less space, delivering faster backups, ultra-rapid data recovery, and significant reductions in rack space, power usage, and management complexity.

The DXi T-10- 240 and T-10-480 are purpose-built for high-performance environments that don't require full-scale data center infrastructure. In demo center, the DXi T-Series has proven it can deliver on that promise, with exceptional restore performance and space-saving deduplication. It's a powerful, compact platform that helps organizations stay prepared and protected in the face of growing cyber threats.

The new models are designed to scale as data grows, without disruption or unexpected costs. With Quantum's flexible, software-based pay-as-you-grow licensing, customers can activate the capacity they need upfront and expand in increments of 15 TB or 30 TB over time. This eliminates the need for forklift upgrades or downtime, while keeping budgets predictable.

This puts pressure on backup systems to effectively combine scalability, speed, and resilience. In addition to rapid recovery and flexible scaling, the new DXi T-10-Series models integrate fully with Quantum's broader data protection portfolio. They can serve as a high-speed landing zone for daily backups and VM recovery, with replication or tiering to a DXi 9200 hybrid system for petabyte-scale on-premises retention.

Long-term backups can be vaulted to Quantum's ActiveScale®? object storage or Scalar®? tape libraries forimmutability, air-gapped protection, and cloud-scale durability, all managed within a single Quantum ecosystem.

The new DXi T- 10-240 and T-10-480 appliances are available now.
