* Installing the appropriate expansion shelf license.

• DR4100 system internal drive capacity

– Supports an internal drive capacity up to 3 TB in the DR4100 system (with up to 2 TB capacity in the

DR4000 system).

– 3 TB internal drive capacity results in available physical capacity (decimal) of 26.79 TB and available

physical capacity (binary) of 23.8 TiB for the DR4100 system.

• Supported system limits for DR4000/DR4100 systems

– Maximum files: 32 million (1 TB drives or smaller) or 64 million (2 TB drives or greater)

– Maximum containers: 32

– Maximum replications per container: 32

– Maximum CIFS connections: 32

– Maximum NFS connections: 32
