Let me throw in Nimble as well then... They also have a compelling offering if you ask me. Most of them will do 10-15 TB usable in 2U, and dedupe/compression will depend on your workload. That could be 10:1 but also 2:1 who knows. The Nimble CS240 for instance. It is difficult for anyone to say what you need / should be looking at. I also personally don't see "non enterprise grade components" as a problem with Tintri for instance, as long as they offer you enterprise level support on them. Most of these companies have a smart way of leveraging the SSDs allowing them to extend their life span.
