PowerMax 2500

The PowerMax 2500 is the entry-point into next-generation, mission-critical storage. As the world’s most secure mission-critical storage, it is designed for Zero Trust security environments. Not only does PowerMaxOS 10 software update in under 6 seconds, it is also designed for 99.9999% data availability and 65M secure snaps for a single array. The 2500 has fully automated performance optimization (AI/ML) and is the industry’s first automated end-to-end NVMe/TCP deployment solution powered by the breakthrough dynamic fabric architecture. The 2500 not only has 4:1 data reduction guaranteed, but also offers the industry’s first REST API storage provisioning for block, file, mainframe, and virtual environments.

The 2500 delivers up to 50% better response times, up to 2x more IOPS per port, 7x more storage capacity, and provides 80% power savings per terabyte compared with previous models. The PowerMax2500 is intuitive and resilient, adapting as your organization grows.
