One word - density. We are not unhappy with our EMC, just need to get a lot bigger and Copan loads out at 1/6th the space - not to mention power/cooling. Again, we are just beginning on this, our mileage may vary!

The savings in space and power utilization are compelling. In a couple of months I'll let our know how well it all works!

Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 7:52 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Copan VTL I know I've asked before some questions related to VTL and those who use them. So far I have not seen anyone respond they are using this appliance but I'm specifically wondering if anyone is using or has anything they can specifically say about this unit. The question in no way should suggest we are thinking of using this, I'm just wondering if anyone has any knowledge they can pass on positive or negative. Was it part of a group of vendors you considered and chose something else? Thanks for your time.
