Yeah. the quote I got from Dell was MSRP because I'm working with a VAR and they won't quote against themselves. J

I just had a webinar with them and they seem like they're pretty good. They have separate drive chassis and controllers, with the controller being essentially a server class machine. Anyway, just thought I'd ask in here if anyone had any experience with them. John-AldrichTile-Tools No virus found in this incoming message.
