Features

Reduce TCO, increase efficiency & sustainability
Lenovo ThinkSystem DG systems are built on high-density NVMe QLC flash technology, making them ideal for non-latency-sensitive deployments with a small storage footprint — including data lakes, backup consolidation, or transitioning from hybrid/HDD to all-flash storage. Reduce your data center costs with a more sustainable and more efficient solution than hybrid flash and HDD systems.
Reduce rack space and achieve better energy efficiency compared to traditional flash arrays.
Realize even greater savings with up to 4:1 storage efficiency for SAN workloads and easy tiering of cold data to the cloud.

Scale capacity and performance
Scale capacity with ease and eliminate data silos and data migrations. Combine performance flash, capacity flash, and hybrid storage—across SAN, NAS, and object storage—in a single cluster.
Cluster 2-24 nodes (12 high-availability pairs).
Manage massively scalable NAS containers of up to 20PB and 400 billion files with a single namespace.

Advanced data protection
Industry-leading anti-ransomware guards your sensitive data on-premises and in the cloud.
Multi-factor authentication and role-based access control.
Autonomous ransomware protection with preemptive detection against attacks.
Simplify backup and recovery with built-in application-consistent data protection.
Achieve business continuity and fast disaster recovery with zero data loss and zero downtime.
