Bit pricey?
USD 5000 @ 146G @ 2 disks (raw w/o RAID) for SCSI/SCSI w/ max 4 Disks
-> 2 more disks fit
Apple Xserve RAID:
USD 6000 @ 1TB @ for disks (raw w/o RAID) for FC/SATA w/
-> 10 more disks fit
Methinks, there is place for the price of an FC HBA somewhere in there.
Question is more of whether to buy Apple storage for non-Apple servers,
as the management goodness fades pretty quickly if you don't stay within
the cult completely. ;)
