One of the new feature of Oracle 11g is that Oracle SecureFiles use variable chunk sizes, which can be as large as 64 MB.By storing these chunks next to one another, Oracle also minimizes fragmentation.

About Deduplication

SecureFiles Intelligent Deduplication, available with the Oracle Advanced Compression Option, enables Oracle Database to automatically detect duplicate LOB data within a LOB column or partition, and conserve space by storing only one copy of the data.

Note that you must have a license for the Oracle Advanced Compression Option before implementing SecureFiles Intelligent Deduplication. See Oracle Database Licensing Information for more information.

Note also that Oracle Streams does not support SecureFiles LOBs that are deduplicated.

About Encryption

SecureFiles Intelligent Encryption, available with the Oracle Advanced Security Option, introduces a new encryption facility for LOBs. The data is encrypted using Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), which allows the data to be stored securely, and still allows for random read and write access.

Whoops, forgot to mention that E is also correct.

E is also an answer:

DEDUPLICATE or KEEP_DUPLICATES
The DEDUPLICATE option enables SecureFiles Intelligent Deduplication; it specifies that SecureFiles LOB data that is identical in two or more rows in a LOB column, partition or subpartition must share the same data blocks. The database combines SecureFiles LOBs with identical content into a single copy, reducing storage and simplifying storage management. The opposite of this option is KEEP_DUPLICATES.
