No no no...you guys are looking at it the wrong way. They are not about to release a how to for using a HDS or EMC on the backend, are they? IBM are not going to fud someone to write a Red Book on someone elses hardware. It's just simply a "how to" document. Nothing more...nothing less. Whilst the concepts can still be applied, I think it's outdated and does not represent the way my team would deploy Citrix servers, blades or no blades.

I didnât read the whole thing, but it looked like they labeled it as though it would house SQL, profiles, and home folders. They wouldnât be local anyway, so it was a good spot for another sales plug rather than generic storage.
