Hi gurus, We are in the process of buying a new SAN. Our choice is between the following : - Hitachi Thunder 9570V - HP EVA3000 Could you give us some pros and cons regarding these two? - Oracle related issues? - General issues? Hitachi is in the list only because it also supports SGI, and we have a small application on SGI (only four users of the 120 employees will use it). HP doesn't support the SGI, but it seems easier to manage. If we did not have the SGI our decision would definitely be the HP - we do not have dedicated staff to manage the SAN so ease-of-use is important. But is it worthwhile to choose the more complicated to manage Hitachi simply to support the SGI application? I'd appreciate your guidance on this dilema.
