HP claims that its new StoreOnce features Federated Deduplication, which has the ability to move data around without having to rehydrate it and then de-dupe it again. 

Moreover, unlike the previous generation HP StoreOnce Backup Systems, which were limited to a single node, this can take advantage of a scale-out architecture.

The B6200 can start as a pair of nodes (called a couplet) with 48TB up to 768TB in four couplets or eight nodes.
