The Fujitsu ETERNUS DX200 S4 storage system, part of the newly enhanced entry-level ETERNUS DX S4 hybrid storage range, has gained official recognition for its powerful performance, price per performance and outstanding response times in the latest Storage Performance Council’s SPC-1 Benchmark – the recognized independent standard for comparing the performance of storage systems.

With the ETERNUS DX200 S4 model, Fujitsu set a new SPC-1 record, as the excellent price/performance ratio of $0.22/IOPS (Input/Output per Second) positions the Fujitsu hybrid storage system as an affordable favorite for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Validating the powerful performance of the ETERNUS, the SPC-1 Benchmark test results confirm that the system achieves ultrafast response times of just 0.59 milliseconds while under full load. The ETERNUS also scores an outstanding IOPS performance above the 300,000 mark.

Fujitsu recently doubled the system capacity of its ETERNUS DX S4 hybrid storage range, bringing new levels of performance and capacity within easy reach of SMEs and large enterprises looking for storage solutions in branch or remote offices.
