Hitachi Vantara is rolling out VSP One Block High End and the whole pitch sits on a simple tension. AI workloads are exploding and ransomware is hitting harder than ever, yet most companies are still stuck on aging infrastructure that cannot keep up. So Hitachi is dropping an all flash NVMe setup built to handle both sides of that pressure. It gives the speed needed for next gen AI and mission critical systems while locking down data in a way that makes ransomware recovery less of a gamble. The system keeps snapshots in an isolated area so teams can roll back to a clean state even if attackers get inside which is basically the safety net most companies wish they had.

On the performance front the hardware acceleration and compression engine cut latency and push higher throughput without forcing teams to juggle multiple tools. VSP 360 sits on top to simplify data management across environments which matters because most companies are split across on prem cloud and everything in between. Hitachi is also tying the platform to its EverFlex program to reduce downtime and give clearer recovery paths when things go sideways. The setup leans into another trend too which is cutting the energy footprint of data centers through smarter compression fewer drives and longer hardware life. Availability starts in the first half of 2026.
