Solid-state storage innovator NexGen Storage has expanded its n5 Series of storage systems with new PCIe solid-state offerings. The NexGen n5 Series offers several solid-state configurations that deliver a range of performance levels and price points, and each n5 system offers both 10 GbE and 1 GbE network options.
According to a NexGen Storage press release submitted to Channel Pro-SMB, the new n5 Series models pack “higher performance and capacity in a compact, 3U footprint.”
