Datastorage in Cisco Hyperflex Solution

[joe.cabanillas]

Good morning community,
How is the calculation for the capacity of the datastorage in a hyperconvergence solution ?. I currently have a solution of 04 HX240C-M4SX nodes, each with 12 1.2TB disks. In summary would have a gross net capacity of 57.6TB, the solution is configured with replication factor 3, under these conditions of how much would my datastorage ?, Can you help me with this doubt ?.
Thank you.

Hi @joe.cabanillas ,

If it were as simle as dividing 57.6 by 3, then you'd get an answer of 19.2TB - but of course compression and deduplication screw the formula completely.

I suggest you visit the Hyperflex Sizing tool and go for the choose the Sizing Calculator and put in your details there, including expected compression and de-dupe factors (defaults are given if you are not sure)

I hope this helps
