- Scalability: Up to 1,536 TB storage capacity with 7 expansion units
- 10GbE built-in: 2 x 10GbE and 4 x 1GbE Ethernet ports
- PCIe 3.0 expansion: 2 x PCIe slots for additional network interface card support
- Virtualization-ready: Certified for VMware vSphere, Microsoft Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, and OpenStack Cinder
