Internal raid depending on controller type and disk configuration could be
faster than an external SAN... But chances are external SAN has alot more
scalability as far as adding more controller, cabinets and disks...

Hello All,
I am trying to decide which storage I should use for the "Data Directory".
My application has lots of 'SELECT's (80%) and fewer
UPDATEs/INSERTs(20 %).
I have the following choices of Data storage
1) Xiotech SAN (66 Mhz FCAL)
2) NAS
3) Internal SCSI 3 RAID 5
Will I achieve any better
