Considered Both Products	Dell PowerVault Disk Backup and Discovery (DL, TL & ML Series) Verified User Technician Chose Dell PowerVault Disk Backup and Discovery (DL, TL & ML Series) couple vendors but nothing to write home about.... Incentivized Helpful? Joe Wilker Network and Systems Administrator II - Team Lead Chose Dell PowerVault Disk Backup and Discovery (DL, TL & ML Series) PowerVault was cheaper back in 2007 compared to these, but eventually the others won out for our enterprise needs. Incentivized Helpful? Ezra Owen Director of Infrastructure Chose Dell PowerVault Disk Backup and Discovery (DL, TL & ML Series) Pure Storage is much better overall. If you need to have a 7.2K solution or an array where you have several speeds needed (7K, 10K, or SSD) then Powervault is good. It is also much cheaper than Pure Storage. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Dell PowerVault Disk Backup and Discovery (DL, TL & ML Series)
Likelihood to Recommend	Dell Technologies For small to medium sided environments, it's great, or for low demand but being able to hit higher IOPS on demand. It's still entry-level compared to EqualLogic hardware but a great contender in the field. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Dell Technologies Tape Solution Small Business Solution Good for direct attached storage purposes like video security. Incentivized Joe Wilker Network and Systems Administrator II - Team Lead Read full review
Cons	Dell Technologies Maintenance is tough. Dell recommends bringing the unit down for any kind of maintenance of upgrades. Internal IOPS monitoring could be greatly improved. Arrays are locked down to Dell licensed disks. Incentivized Ezra Owen Director of Infrastructure Read full review

Return on Investment	Dell Technologies If you need a lot of disks attached to a system, PowerVault is the way to go. The cost of the unit is reasonable, and you can extend the life of the unit pretty far. Incentivized Joe Wilker Network and Systems Administrator II - Team Lead Read full review
