    Definitely would recommend this unit or this family of units into most peoples organizations. Especially if you're starting fresh with a whole dedicated SAN and dont have to move a ton of data over to these (though that is possible, it is very messy). If you're moving from existing storage, then you will have to be prepared for some sore spots!

    Its cost effective. Its very well suited for huge data handling with zero downtime environment. Various business intelligence software can be used in very well manner with maximum uptime. Fujitsu PRIMEQUEST Series is using X-86 architecture with high reliability. But some models only available in all regions worldwide. other models are only available in Japan. Also learning resources need to be increased
