“The new FXT 4800 Edge Filer is the next logical extension of our Avere 4000 series,” said Jeff Tabor, senior director of product marketing at Avere. “Faster CPU enables our customers to reach higher performance levels, and as always, our Edge-Core approach optimizes response time to users and enables centralizing storage for cost savings and simplified management.”
