RE: SAN/NAS Fred Levine posted this article on the EMC thread from Electronic News comparing SAN and NAS. Here is the conclusion of the article: <<So it all comes down to timing. Cahners In-Stat Group believes the short-term win is with NAS. It's cheap, easy, compatible, and has a better growth path with 10Gbit/sec. Ethernet than Fibre Channel. In addition, if SAN does end up the long-term winner, NAS' low cost means the pain of scrapping it will not be as great. However, depending on the timing of the arrival of 10Gbit/sec. Ethernet and InfiniBand, NAS could wind up being the long-term winner. After all, the market rewards the cheap and the fast. >> Message 13174908 Greg
