VXA is 33GB.
The M2 is

I installed 9 of these ~6 months ago in beige G3's (8 desktop 1 tower)
along with a CentreCom 10/100 switch have been very happy with them.
I've used Farallon network stuff for many years found all of it to be top
it's at least half again as fast as DLT on my system. I think the
