    Anyone using Facilis systems?

    Posted by Mark Whitmore on January 24, 2006 at 9:13 pm

    Looking at a SANS solution and Facilis (www.facilis.net/24D.htm) seems to be hitting the mark, it’s
    a bit pricey but that’s par for coarse. Anyone else using or know anyone
    who is?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    We use two of the Terrablock 12D over 2Gb FC thru a switch for 8 PCs and a Mac.

    It is pretty simple to administer and whenever I do have a question on it, I can get an engineer on the phone. The system is low-maintenance and basically a huge disk that you partition and share among your clients. Unlike some of the other lower-cost SANs, you can run two uncompressed HD clients on it. For compressed video, you can have up to 20 clients.
