About the Dell PowerStore 5200T
The Dell PowerStore 5200T delivers up to approximately 1.9 PB of raw capacity in a space-efficient 2U form factor, positioning this Dell EMC storage appliance as a mid-to-enterprise tier solution for organizations requiring dense NVMe and Storage Class Memory (SCM) architectures. Built on the Dell PowerStore T-Series platform, the PS5200T combines dual active-active controllers with always-on inline deduplication and compression to maximize effective capacity without performance degradation—making it an ideal choice for storage architects and IT procurement teams evaluating next-generation block and file infrastructure.
The PS5200T supports comprehensive protocol diversity across block (FC, iSCSI, NVMe-oF via both Fibre Channel and NVMe/TCP) and file (NFS v3/v4/v4.1, SMB 2.x/3.x, FTPS, SFTP) workloads, with host connectivity options spanning 16Gb/32Gb Fibre Channel, 10GbE/25GbE iSCSI, and NVMe-oF. Dell EMC's microservices-based container-native operating system enables non-disruptive upgrades while delivering enterprise data services including thin provisioning, snapshots, clones, and both synchronous (PowerStore Metro Volume with zero RPO) and asynchronous replication. Hypervisor integration spans VMware vSphere with vVols and VASA 3.0 support, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Red Hat OpenShift via CSI, with management provided through an embedded HTML5 PowerStore Manager GUI, REST API, and Dell CloudIQ cloud-based AI analytics. Optional FIPS 140-2 validated self-encrypting drives and software-based encryption at rest address compliance requirements, while clustering of up to 4 PowerStore appliances enables scalable pooled capacity.
Enterprise Deployment Scenarios
- Multi-protocol virtualization consolidation for vSphere, Hyper-V, and OpenShift environments requiring unified block and file access
- Zero-RPO disaster recovery and business continuity via PowerStore Metro Volume synchronous replication across geographically distributed data centers
- High-density NVMe and SCM deployments for latency-sensitive transactional and analytical workloads
- Scaled-out clustered storage pools supporting up to 4 appliances for capacity and performance growth without forklift upgrades
- Compliance-driven enterprises requiring FIPS 140-2 encryption and non-disruptive system maintenance windows
