We updated last weekend from a 995/500 to an N4000-200-380.  It is nominally rated as being twice as fast as our old 3000.  Don't believe it.  This performance of the new machine is unbelievable.  A full backup, about 100 GB went from 3hr 4mn to 1hr 45m.  Our overnight exclusive batch production went from 2hr to 50mn.  We used to have the system ready for the next days activity at about 1:00AM.  Now it's ready at 10:15PM.  We've discovered that it can be too fast.  We FTP to a number of other machines in our data center (AS/400, NT) and find they aren't ready to receive our transmissions yet (FTP services down, backups still going).

Great job HP.
