Thankyou...we are leaning in this direction... -----Original Message----- From: Lizette Koehler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 09, 2007 9:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: 3390 Model 27
John, Just from reading many posts and manuals on it, I would say that unless you have a real need for a very large volume - the performance and support could cramp your style. Look at previous archive entries for this device type. The issues for recovery, backup, restore time frames have me very leary of using them yet. I will be installing 1 3390-27 in the near future. Its only purpose will be for our SMP/E Downloads for Service Pac. Other than that, I feel that 3390-3 and 3390-9 are sufficient for us for now.
