NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD with DGX Vera Rubin NVL72: Enhanced storage tier per scalable unit of 8 systems (576 GPUs), aggregate read / write

280 / 140 GB/srecommendation

Value kindrecommendation — Recommendations are design guidance, not measured facts; validate them against the project boundary conditions.
ScopeNVIDIA reference storage guideline, not a measured result or a per-GPU floor. The Standard tier is 90 / 45 GB/s per SU; at four SUs Enhanced is 1,120 / 560 GB/s and Standard 360 / 180. Enhanced read works out to about 0.49 GB/s per GPU, the same as NVIDIA's DGX B300 Ethernet reference architecture. Large vision datasets (over 30 TB) call for 4 GB/s per GPU read in all three NVIDIA reference architectures.
