Net Appliance vs. Cisco [7:11831]

2001-07-10 Thread Cisco Skin
Anyone have any experience/recommendations setting up a Net Appliance SAN using the F800 Filer? The reason I'm asking is that we're getting ready to purchase one from Net App and my boss just showed me the new Cisco SN 5420. Just want to get some input from anyone who's using either of these.
