We're running e2k on a shark, but we don't have many users on it. I'm forseeing I/o issues just from the design. If you can, fight for your own disk pack so that you don't suffer the pains of the "shark for all" design. I lost the battle, here, so I'm sure we'll have slowness and it will be all "exchange's fault". We were going to go with the Hitachi, but a slick salesman knew the key to our manager's heart (mets tickets) - I sound like the compulsive liar from Saturday Night Live
