DR2000v expansion unit limits

This section lists the supported virtual environments for the DR2000v system.

NOTE: At least one DR Series system hardware appliance is required to act as the License Server for DR2000v. To register the DR2000v successfully, version 3.1 or later of the DR Series software is required to be loaded on the DR Series system hardware appliance.

*The ESXi 5.5 version is VM hardware 10-based. This means you must use the Web client, and not the vSphere client.

NOTE: Capacity for the DR Series system is technically measured in TiB, where 4TiB is equal to 4.398 TB. In the case of the 12 TiB drive, it is equal to 13.194 TB of storage capacity.
