Craig,

I use equallogix and like it, but it can be expensive. You may want to look at Silicon Mechanics ZFS based storage at:

as it would be cheaper and may meet your needs. If you really want to roll your own check out http://www.napp-it.org/index_en.html

cheers,

We have around 200TB of dev/QA storage that is across 3 SAN's. (EMC VMAX
and IBM XIV's)

Servers are AIX, Solaris and VMware.

We are looking to replace it with cheaper storage.

I would be interested in build-your-own-NAS solutions, but I am not sure
what to start looking at. (Netapp is too expensive)

Failing that, what does a cheap SAN look like?

We don't need SAN replication, or many fancy features.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Craig
