To double the throughput on an existing dual XtremIO X1 10 TB X-Brick cluster, adding a dual 10 TB X-Brick Expansion Kit is recommended.

XtremIO uses a scale-out architecture, and adding a dual X-Brick expansion will increase both storage capacity and performance.

This expansion ensures balanced performance improvement and leverages the best practices configuration already in place for the existing setup.
