Just to expand a little on one area of Bob’s response, Quantum now offers their Xcellis product line, which is 10Gbe NAS targeted at the video industry. And it’s cheaper than their fiber-based solutions (though still not cheap compared to the myriad of NAS solutions on the market).
Sometimes corporate IT departments are just more comfortable going with a known-quantity like Quantum. That’s just the reality of corporate politics.
