Here is the information I was able to gather so far regarding gen 4s hardware:
- They have discontinued 1.3tb and 2.6Tb Nodes, they only make 2Tb, 3.9Tb and 7.8 Tb Nodes. The nodes are now manufatured by Intel, not Dell.
- All Gen4S nodes require Avamar software version 6.1 SP1 or later
- Gen4S nodes are compatible with existing Gen4 systems (provided nodes are running a compatible Avamar software version.
