## Storage migration 

## 7 

This chapter provides a detailed walkthrough of the storage migration wizard. The storage migration wizard migrates data from external storage systems to the internal capacity of the Storwize V5000 Gen2. 

The data migration from other storage systems to the Storwize V5000 Gen2 consolidates storage and enables the benefits of the Storwize V5000 Gen2 features across all the volumes, such as the intuitive GUI, internal virtualization, thin provisioning, and FlashCopy.
