The XFS guaranteed-rate I/O system provides an API that allows applications to reserve bandwidth to the filesystem. XFS dynamically calculates the performance available from the underlying storage devices, and will reserve bandwidth sufficient to meet the requested performance for a specified time. This is a feature unique to the XFS file system.
IRIX (/ ˈ aɪ r ɪ k s /, EYE-ricks) is a discontinued operating system developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) to run on the company's proprietary MIPS workstations and servers. It is based on UNIX System V with BSD extensions. In IRIX, SGI originated the XFS file system and the industry-standard OpenGL graphics API.
The CXFS file system (Clustered XFS) is a proprietary shared disk file system designed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) specifically to be used in a storage area network (SAN) environment. A significant difference between CXFS and other shared disk file systems is that data and metadata are managed separately from each other. CXFS provides direct ...
XFS – Used on SGI IRIX and Linux systems; zFS – z/OS File System; not to be confused with other file systems named zFS or ZFS. zFS - an IBM research project to develop a distributed, decentralized file system; not to be confused with other file systems named zFS or ZFS.
Silicon Graphics International Corp. (SGI; formerly Rackable Systems, Inc.) was an American manufacturer of computer hardware and software, including high-performance computing systems, x86-based servers for datacenter deployment, and visualization products.

The SGI Indigo2 (stylized as "Indigo 2") and the SGI Challenge M are Unix workstations which were designed and sold by SGI from 1992 to 1997. The Indigo2, codenamed "Fullhouse", is a desktop workstation.
The SGI Origin 200, code named Speedo, was an entry-level server computer developed and manufactured by SGI, introduced in October 1996 to accompany their mid-range and high-end Origin 2000. It is based on the same architecture as the Origin 2000 but has an unrelated hardware implementation. [ 1 ]
SGI POWER Challenge GR. The POWER Challenge was announced on 28 January 1993 [1] and was intended to compete against supercomputer companies such as Cray Research. [1] At the time of its announcement, Silicon Graphics claimed that the POWER Challenge would have the same level of performance as Cray's Cray Y-MP with a single microprocessor. [1]
