Sorry, I read the question differently, as in "I have X4500/X4540 now,
and want more of them, but Oracle doesn't sell them anymore, what can
I buy?". The 7000-series (now: Unified Storage) *are* storage appliances.

They may be storage appliances, but the user can not put their own
software on them. This limits the appliance to only the features that
Oracle decides to put on it.

Isn't that the very definition of an Appliance ?
