I agree. I have also had GREAT luck with Equallogic. The problem is that people don't think for themselves and if it ain't fiber and crazy expensive it can't be good.
I'm thinking that they have an inferiority thing going. Equallogic boxes are *way* nifty and a solution for a huge percentage of users, but I think they want an answer to the fiber connected stupidly expensive storage options. Honestly, I don't think they really need it...
I agree! Also, I dislike the sense of helplessness I feel when I have to trust some "experts" opinion. I rarely can do better than the expert/community/commercial version when I try to do for my self - but at least it makes me less of an idiot when consuming someone else's expertise.
Besides the learning is fun.
