Environmental Burden Reduction
The ETERNUS DX has energy and power savings that reduce CO2 emissions and lessen the burden on the envi-
ronment.
Eco-mode
Eco-mode is a function that reduces power consumption for limited access disks by stopping the disks rotation
during specified periods or by powering off the disks.
An overview of the Eco-mode is shown below.
