couple vendors but nothing to write home about....
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.
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.
