They are an HP show, however I am open minded but it does make sense. For example all the sff trays and drives will move from server to san saving them much money which is key for them.
As far as the software, as I have to use it I would like to have a good reliable CLI however that appears to be not so common on cheap sans now adays. I presume I stuck with some web based app. I don’t need or expect much at the 1040’s price point that is for sure. jlc From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Don Ely Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2015 11:47 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] Entry level iSCSI san for small shop Why are you limiting yourself to just HP storage?
