<p style="margin:0;padding:0;">Well, I see it for 320. Then you need to add a SSD, and a decent network card, and I suppose it could be made to work. Awful big, tho, in an era where I can get 1/2TB on an 2.5 inch SSD.<br /><br />What I'd wanted was closer to a dreamplug - 160 bucks, two network ports, but with an internal SSD. bonus points if it fit into a 1U rack and ate as little power as possible.<br /><br />Principal use case here is to be a "network monitor" with enough oomph to run stuff like cacti/mrtg/snmp tools, as well as do captures off of a mirrored switch port.<br /><br /><br /><br /></p>

Some people have it running 16 GB ram and<br /> I've got mine booting off an SSD via external eSATA. Very well built with 2<br /> x half height PCI slots (4 x eth port card?).

<div><br />I'd be very interested to know how fast it could do packet header captures.<br /><br />Line rate (gigE) would be good. <br /><br />Does it do BQL? (what is the onboard ethernet chips)<br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /></div>
