Giganet steps into IP storage

John -

Your Message Number 3899 mentioned an NTAP joint development effort with Giganet. Here's an article on Giginet at Network World Fusion's Web site.

Towards the bottom, you'll find some links to white papers and such on Giganet's VI/IP technology.

Hope you find it interesting, as I did.
