Modern day e450 i/o equivalent

Hello,

We have a software vendor telling us we need something equivalent (or
better) than a e450 in terms of IO. Their software isn't very CPU
intensive, but does tons of IO.

I was leaning toward a v240 or v4x0 .. if I'm looking for max IO what
would you guys recommend?


Thanks,
Rob

If it's number of I/O busses you;re after, I guess the V880
is the most comperable machine.

I think it's more io throughput. I would think the newer matching might
have same/less buses but faster?
