AI is impacting many aspects of our lives. If you’re in a mid-sized business, it’s got tremendous potential. But while those opportunities are a subject for another day, there are also important actions to take when it comes to our AI-accelerated world. Among these are the need to improve storage capabilities – and ensure they’re fit for the future.
At Nexstor, we recognise that businesses need more than just space from their storage solution. They also need intelligence, agility and scalability. Enter Dell PowerStore Prime, Dell Technologies’ latest offering in the PowerStore lineup. Designed with the evolving needs of modern enterprises in mind, it’s all about making storage smarter, faster, and better suited to the workloads of today’s increasingly data-driven world – and tomorrow’s too.
So, What Exactly Is Dell Powerstore Prime?
At its core, Dell PowerStore Prime is a mid-range storage array, but calling it just “storage” would be underselling its capabilities. Think of it as storage with a brain. It’s built on the foundations of Dell’s existing PowerStore architecture, but it’s turbocharged. Dell has packed this system with cutting-edge technology that brings automation, flexibility, and seamless scalability to the table.
What Is It Capable Of?

It means you could be powering innovation with up to 30% more IOPS,1 20% lower latency2 and 2x more volumes.3 You could also boost performance up to 66%4 with a data-in-place controller upgrade.
- Cost-Efficient Scalability: PowerStore Prime offers you the opportunity to start small and grow as needed. Instead of investing in huge amounts of storage upfront, you can scale as your business grows, making this an ideal solution for fast-growing companies.
- Operational Efficiency: Less manual intervention and intelligent, self-optimising storage means IT teams can spend less time troubleshooting and more time focusing on strategic initiatives.
