Can you upgrade a FlashSystem 5200 to a FlashSystem 5300?

Yes, there is a non-disruptive upgrade path where you can replace the 5200 canisters in a non-clustered system to make it a 5300.

Example: An organization has a 5200 with six (6) FCM3s. If they buy a couple Node Canisters and upgrade their system to become a 5300, they can take advantage of: better performance, bandwidth, more ports, extended lifecycle and continuing getting value out of their FCM3s for a longer period of time.

Owners of a FlashSystem 5200 have a seamless path to upgrading to the FlashSystem 5300, which offers exceptional benefits:

  • Ideal for enterprise data centers
  • Excellent for departmental storage
  • Perfect for edge storage
  • Auto-ranging power options enable a wide range of placement possibilities
  • When physical space is at a premium, FlashSystem 5300 provides the answer

FlashSystem 5300 will be available for configuration starting with April 23rd.
