Thanks for the article. I particularly liked:

The National Security Agency began using NAS recently for an undisclosed project because its file server was straining to keep up with processing jobs and file access requests. Systems engineers reviewed various options and concluded that NAS could support the variety of clients, applications and networks found at the project’s different locations, according to an NSA spokesperson. The biggest advantage of the technology is an "immense simplicity and ease of operation," the spokesperson said.

IT departments have only so much time to learn and work with new technologies. Plug & Play that works well is what they want in many cases.
