As long as you don't need to replicate TB of data then dedupe and DFSR work well together.

We do have TB's of data although not being replicated a lot I have seeded the drives. &nbsp;Lots of geology files and maps. &nbsp;On average maybe 100GB replication a day.

2012 R2 is supposed to handle up to 100TB DFSR but I had troubles with 30 TB of moderate data change rate (50 - 100 GB/day) with DFSR and dedupe. I ended up using a robocopy job to move the data daily for this share. But I also have about 5TB on DFSR and dedupe that is running without issue. <br />

That's some anecdotal evidence. Not sure sure what the common experience is.

Yup. These scenarios are using dedupe.

We have DFS shares on servers in remote offices, do if I turn on Dedupe on the main servers at corp should I turn it on at the remote DFS servers? &nbsp;Has anyone seen issues with Dedupe and DFS?<br />
