Anyone using the NexSAN SataBeast?
Hi people, we're looking into the possibilty of purchasing a NexSAN SataBeast to use in our SAN. Ideally LUNs will be created on the array and then assigned to hosts such as an E2900 running Solaris 10, Symantec Storage Foundation Suite and Oracle 10g.
I was hoping anyone who has had experience of these arrays could give me an insight into any hidden problems that weren't foreseen at the time of purchase. I did read somewhere that the data cache isn't battery backed up and I'm not too sure about the idea of spinning disks up/down via AutoMaid etc.
Any feedback albeit positive or negative would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan.
