5500 is not in production any more. They have the DXi7500
Express, instead.
1. Sorry not tested yet.
2. DXi 3500 has only inline deduplication. DXi7500 has in and of line
deduplication (post processing)
3. DXi7500 has full support for OST. (With the latest firmware). Can do
replication and netbackup is aware of the copy. Also has direct export to tapes
(only with i500 and i2000 libraries)
4. Not tested yet.

Experiences
I'm looking
for real world experiences with anyone using the Quantum DXi 3500,
5500 or 7500 VTL's with de-duplication without or with any of the Sun SL
series libraries using ACSLS.
Discussion points
could be:
1. Ingest
performance bottlenecks if any
2. Post
processing (land to DXi disk, then dedupe)
3. Planing for
6.5.4 OpenStorage API
4. Average
deduplication ratio
