I’ve been on holiday for the last week (sunning myself and the family in Cyprus). I had no Internet access – not even TV! Although I had no laptop (or Blackberry this time) I did take my iPod Touch, now configured with the mobile version of NewsGator. As I’ve mentioned previously,...

Hitachi has announced (10th September) the availability of a new storage array, the USP-VM. At first glance this appears to be the USP-V equivalent of the NSC55 as it has very similar characteristics in terms of cache cards, FEPs etc. Unfortunately HDS have provided links to specification pages not...

- BRCD seems to be seeing an uptick today - up 7.6% already - hoping Dell are on the rebound?
- @Storagezilla I didn't think there were any EVA folks any more (natural selection)
- Erm @3parfarley we expect the first SWCSA to be with @hpstorageguy
- @SteveTodd completely! My record was about 5 peas at the same time.

- @SEPATONJay @storagezilla I guess it's a case of "we will offer more money but we want more consequences if we back out"
- @Storagezilla so that implies only the old agreement is still in place?
- @Storagezilla 3Par's statement doesn't make sense. The reseller agreement is part of revised Dell proposal which they said unacceptable
