WHY CHOOSE THIS PRODUCT?

• Actual-data allocation Reduces unnecessary physical capacity consumption because Space Efficient copies use space according to the data actually copied rather than the full S-VOL size.
• Over-500TB licensing Provides a defined procurement tier for large XP7 storage estates where smaller capacity bands are insufficient.
• TSE architecture Track Space Efficient volumes provide the dedicated thin-provisioned volume structure used by FlashCopy Space Efficient.
• Better capacity economics Lower physical copy-capacity requirements can help storage teams improve utilization and manage infrastructure growth more efficiently.
• XP7-native integration Designed specifically as part of the HPE XP7 FlashCopy software portfolio.
• Clear licensing progression The XP7 family offers 0–100TB, 101–250TB, 251–500TB and Over 500TB tiers, supporting more predictable capacity-based procurement.
• Large-environment positioning TK941AE is appropriate when the XP7 estate exceeds the 500TB threshold covered by the lower licensing tiers.
• Operational capacity optimization Helps organizations prioritize usable storage capacity for production workloads instead of allocating excessive physical space to copy targets.
