I did not mean "take away" what I meant is previously the storage vendors like emc, ibm, hds, cpq are proprietary. This was a unique advantage for ntap. There are companies like storageapps and others that make san's heterogeneous by being host and array independant. This will further make san architecture more popular and viable than NAS. Also, the major players will most likely have file sharing capabilities like ntap. Those are really the only two reasons you would pick a nas over a san architecture excluding price as a buying variable. A san appliance is a black box that sits at the switch level and provides the software functionality such as remote mirror, virtualization, snap shot copy, etc... If I still speak in toungues forgive me.
