I think there has only been one hardware version.

I know they have discontinued the ASR1001-HDD, which shipped 
with an integrated hard drive at 160GB. 

They are now shipping the ASR1001, which is just 40GB hard 
drive, I think...

The ASR1001 has an integrated 5Gbps ESP.

The ESP ships in 2.5Gbps bandwidth mode, and with an extra 
license, you can increase aggregate throughput to 5Gbps.

4GB of control plane memory assures you 500,000 IPv4 or 
500,000 IPv6 entries in the FIB.

8GB of control plane memory assures you 1,000,000 IPv4 or 
1,000,000 IPv6 entries in the FIB.

16GB of control plane memory gives you similar FIB entry 
numbers as the 8GB option, but coupled with the BGP-SD 
feature, can provide for over 25,000,000 entries in the RIB 
under scaled route reflector scenarios.
