- Place GigaStor M models together with GigaStor models to boost write-to-storage performance at the data center or heavy traffic links.
- GigaStor M can also be deployed alone at the network edge, branch or any location where full long-term packet capture and retention is not an option
GigaStor M Options
GigaStor M is available in five, 2U appliances to address the distinct metadata generation (and corresponding end-user experience) demands of network traffic loads including a sustained 10, 20, or 50 Gb sustained performance levels.
