Re: [BLUG] SAN (for Ubuntu 8.4 and 10.4) recommendation?

Have you already dismissed a direct attached storage product?  SANs are nice for the right situation, but they are very pricey.  It might be overkill for a small lab type situation.

I've heard good things about the Dell SANs, but I've never used them myself.

Hi,

Anyone in the group have any recommendation of a small scale SAN that
works well with Ubuntu (especially for 8.4 and 10.4)?  It's for a small
lab and the storage requirement is not high (probably between 5 to 10
TB?).  I'm seeking for 1) ease of installation/maintenance 2)
performance and 3) reliability.  I know it's vague but just a starting
point.

Thanks,
Shing-Shong Shei
