See here's what I'm not sure of. Even in a dual controller box if the controllers have their own cache and one has a catastrophic failure you're going to loose whatever wasn't committed and still sitting in cache. I don't think you will find that this keep many people up at night worrying.

Thanks. I thought that kind of smelled like marketing speak. :-) Still leaning heavily towards three single-controller SANs, with two in an HA configuration and a third at a D/R site. :-) Silicon Mechanics prices are such that I should be able to do that well under my $30K ceiling. :-)

SFP and GBIC are tranceivers. Its definitely technically possible to intermix. The difficulty is the cable in-between. The question that remains is: Does someone make a solid cable of this type, or would you need the respective tranceivers to have open/interchangeable/female cabling ends so that
