We just went through this exercise. We had EMC, IBM, and StorageTek to
choose from. The long and the short of it was we went with EMC CX600.

FastT500 Pros: Provided by IBM
FastT500 Cons: Did not support all of our OS's, no synchronous replication
solution.

If you want more detail let me know.

Anybody out there using an IBM FastT600 Storage Server? I guess this is the
next generation SSA Box.

We are trying to decide what might be better, EMC or the IBM FastT600
Storage Server. Costs are always a hot topic. Any experiences or thoughts
would be great!

TIA.
