Xiotech

We have been looking at the Xiotech storage solutions, and frankly, it seems kind of sketchy.

Why? Well, one reason is the way their drive packs are configured, if you have drive failure, You must wait to replace the whole pack, not a individual drive, you can not replace the drive pack until you run out of reserved space. (ISE Technology) What will this do to performance? It seems the vendor doesn't want to share this information, and if I am going to rely on this for a SMB setting, it seems risky.

In my book, this would be fine in a large data center, where you need to cut down on drive replacements.

My 2 cents.

Either way you look at it Microsoft Data Center management did not follow standards or best practices in this failure. In which case it makes me wonder more about the outsourcing of corporate data much less personal data.
