  1. Brocade 7800 is here but the world is still waiting for a cost-effective (1Gbps line-rate capable) FCIP router. Lesson: Duopolies don't rock
  2. IBM's new 4u EXP5060 60 drive SATA disk drawer for DS5000 is now in the configurator, with drives orderable in 10packs.
  3. Infosmack Episode #27 - yeah so I forgot the url http://tinyurl.com/yhfksnc
  4. Infosmack #27 - Inside Scoop on Acadia - Skip the first half (bonhomie and bs) and skip to the 2nd half where the tensions start to show
  5. So is anyone else irritated by the epidemic of people using the word "over" when they mean "more than"? Hmmm, I suspect it's only me then...
  6. IBM New Zealand Storage Q4 Business Partner Update today 3pm-4.30pm at IBM Auckland with drinks after.
  7. New IBM Storage Blog at http://ktstevenson.com/
  8. RT: @StorageMonkeys: Data Domain: "It's very difficult to build at scale" http://bit.ly/2mQXm2
  9. "Light travels faster than sound - This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak" - Alan Dundes (StorageMonkeys retweet)
  10. Impending IBM N Series announces likely to include new EXN3000 24 SAS drive disk drawer, 2TB drives, FCoE.
  11. Get my October IBM storage cheatsheet from http://www.box.net/shared/u...
  12. ...and a respected independent storage consultant just told me he always recommends SATA=RAID1 no matter which disk vendor/product is used.
  13. So DS8000 folks regard SATA RAID5 as "professional malpractice"...
  14. Can we be sure FCoE will really take off? http://bit.ly/ZUgim
  15. @wizzy Good feedback from Richard Street re your Chch session. Sounds like it went really well!
  16. FCoE - What happened to the simple vision of convergence? http://bit.ly/eS0Da
  17. Someone should tell Chris Mellor (www.theregister.co.uk) that SVC is already a scale-out cluster http://tinyurl.com/y9fnl92
  18. RAID6 does not solve all the problems of RAID5 rebuilds. 2nd drive failure yes, but it doesn't address other rebuild stress points.
  19. @wizzy Consistent msg from Larry - cloud computing is just hardware, software, networks and databases with a layer of marketing bs.
  20. RT @storagenews: Could Brocade and NetApp get acquired? http://www.enterprisestorag...
