McMoo wrote:Compatibility complaints are common on storagereview, coming from people with DIY servers and SCSI RAID cards. It's a result of the RAID companies having a small market and doing compatibility testing with limited types of hardware (unlike, say, NVidia, who can afford to test on lots of junky hardware). A consultant friend of mine always insists his small customers buy HP (or IBM), because they're much nicer to work on and the turnaround on parts cannot be beat. From the sound of it, you could make a good case for SCSI and SATA storage here: a small amount of SCSI for exchange and the databasey applications, then some terabytes of SATA for file shares and disk-to-disk backup. PST files are brittle under the best of conditions; giving everyone a fat exchange mailbox will probably work out better. |
