Thanks for the feedback. Jeff Frost once painfully proved to me how
fast the new drives and DAS can be. There are obviously some advantages
to a filer (NetApp in this case) like the cloning, management and
sharing it among boxes.

So basically you need a sane NFS config and it's OK then? We can do FCP
on this NetApp so speed I don't think will be an issue. Plus our
database will fit into RAM so management/availability "features" is as
important as speed. I know Hi5 is all NetApp so apparently it *does*
work. I just wondered if they had magic genies. :)

Adi, I saw this thread previously; the diverging opinions out there are
what prompted my question. Thanks for the input!
