Selected Answer: A
Deduplication uses algorithms to analyze, perform pattern detection, and attempts to store only a single instance of data. In general deduplication can work at the block, bit-level, or file level. In PowerStore, deduplication works at the block level at 4 KB granularity.

Selected Answer: A
From Dell EMC PowerStore: Data Efficiencies H18151.3 : "If a pattern was not found, the data is passed through the deduplication algorithm. This algorithm first creates a fingerprint for each 4 KB block of data within the resource using a hashing algorithm. Once created the fingerprint is compared to other fingerprints which represent data within the PowerStore single deduplication domain. The deduplication domain allows data for any resource within the appliance to deduplicate. If a match is found, the physical storage is single instanced. If a match is not found, the data is compressed and placed into a full stripe write to be written to the system."
