I'm looking for community feedback on which vendors and SAN storage hardware they prefer to use for disk backup staging with NetBackup. Who do you use and why? Are there a few favorites? Anyone you would steer clear of?
I'm more interested in a less expensive (low $ per GB), "dumb" storage device and using NBU7 for dedupe as opposed to the more intelligent (and expensive) dedupe appliances, etc (Data Domain, Quantum, etc).
Any feedback and opinions appreciated.
Thanks
