I would recommend taking a look at using Windows servers with Datacore SAN
Melody software. Most lower end SAN/NAS devices are just some kind of
embedded linux or XP system anyway. If you go this way you can use off the
shelf servers and disks and get all the same features as much more expensive
SAN including fiber channel support, iSCSI, synchronous mirroring across
systems, etc.

Subject: [THIN] Alternative fileservers (EMC Celerra)

Hi,
 
We are currently evaluating a possible migration from our Windows 2003
fileserver towards another fileserving system. Our main concerns are
security, high-availability and performance. We talked to EMC about this and
they mentioned migrating towards a Celerra system.
 
Does anyone of you has any experience - good or bad - with such a system?

Regards,

Erik
