FAS8700 vs FAS9000

[raphaelmsx]

Hi people.

Can anyone provide me with advantages/disadvantages regarding FAS9000 and the new FAS8700?

Does the FAS9000 now supports 100gb ethernet for NAS like the FAS8700?

Thanks.

Currently there is no 100G card for the FAS9000.   

However...   the FAS9000/A700 chassis has some advantages over the other chassis in that it's very modular and pretty easy to add cards later down the line.
