Equallogic Deduplication?

Hi,

I am looking at SAN/NAS storage options and most other storage vendors are offering deduplication technology but I cannot find anywhere on the Equallogic literature mentioning this. Is deduplication available with Equallogic? This is a 'must have' for us to store our virtual machines.

Many thanks,

    For the PS series, FW 6.0.4 has dedup capabilities and will reclaim deleted LBA space.

    Hi Donald,

    As this is a few months old, I just thought I would check if you are aware of any timescales for this be rolled out yet?

    Thanks.

    I am curious about the controller thing. So I am presuming this means that any customer with an array prior to the new supported arrays with updated controllers fast enough to handle the additional deduplication demands, will be out of luck in taking advantage of this newer functionality, correct? I am presuming updated controllers can be purchased for current 6500x's and 6510x's but I am also guessing they will be offered at a premium as well....
