We dont have their equipment yet but I did go to a 4 hours live hardware
training session and got hands on to create logical drives, extend drives
etc and I found it very impressive.    We just had the EMC guys here today
and they are going to take us to some site where we can do the same stuff
on EMC san.    XIOtech said their entry level system with about 50% drive
population was about $125K, but you could lease it also which might be
cheaper in the long run.     We are trying to get managment to go with a
san and blade servers instead of the 7u/9u monsters we have now.    After
they eat the initial san cost, expansion will be way cheaper.

Has anyone has any experience with XIOtech?


We're thinking about their Magnitude SAN solution, but I've never heard of
them before.





Thanks,
