"a Dell's terabyte vs. an EMC terabyte amounts to bubblegum vs. wrigleys. one is wrapped differently. "

You're kidding right?

Is it a Network Attached terabyte or a SAN terabyte? Is it a SAN using a 64-port 2GB Fibre Channel director or a dozen 16 port 1GB fibre channel switches? Whose management software will it use? Whose Host Bus Adapters are used? The list goes on and on and on. Storage vendors are NOT all equal. Price/performance points vary dramatically.
