How do I analyze the data for multiple scans?

You can analyze the data for multiple scans by using the following method:

When you select the Disk and Memory Usage Trend chart, the data size trend of scanned data for a selected deduplication block size appears.

The following screenshot displays the Disk and Memory Usage Trend on Day three:

Disk and Memory Usage Trend chart

For example, consider the following details in the Disk and Memory Usage Trend Chart:

You can observe an increase of 7.7 GB in the unique data size with Standard Compression with 4 KB deduplication block size on the second day and an increase of 7.7 GB in the unique data size on the third day. Similarly, memory size is 0.71 GB on the first day and 0.87 GB on the third day. For 15.4 GB increase in the unique data size, the memory requirement increases by 0.16 GB.

The data written on disk on Day three represents the total data size written on disk till the end of Day three. The disk contains the entire data that was written on Day one, Day two, and Day three.
