But you can say that about most of the posts in the sub . <| sep |> Obviously . He was my starting shortstop , though . That said , I had a prospect with good 3 BSS ratings , so he ' ll slot in as an adequate replacement . <| sep |> I don ' t have any more , but I ' ll keep you in mind when I get more ! <| sep |> That has to be a troll . <| sep |> Another layer to the onion and as always I am definitely not crying as I cut it .

They are simple to set up , nobullshit machines and should be easy enough to find . SAS has the advantage of not needing to frig around with FC or iSCSI switches and configuration just throw an HBA in each server and cable directly to one or both controllers and you ' re up and running . Try for at least an MD 3200 which is on the VMware HCL up to 6 . 5 amazingly . I will note that these are loud , powerhungry machines , especially if you ' re running 15 k disks . Dell is dropping the PowerVault line , mainly due to an abundance of acquired storage tech Equallogic , Compellent , now all of EMC and also because while they were OEMing these boxes from LSI before , that part of LSI has been scooped up by NetApp . That said , what you learn managing one of these arrays with MDSM translates directly to SANtricity running on the latest NetApp ESeries hardware .
