Terrible

This video is very, very old (in tech standards). Hopefully most people looking at this will realize this is in way, shape, or form is nowhere near the current day's standards.

This is bull shit.... just the connections are Active Passive - not the controllers...

No, that's N-series, this is the rebranded LSI boxes
-
this is a low end storage array made by LSI. the Dell MD3000i is the same thing. Lame sales commercial here for an overpriced product.
-
Hardware expansion of the box is not necessary due to the 'Peer Storage' architecture of EQL. To expand, you literally buy another box and add it to the group as a new storage pool. You pick up not only extra bandwidth with each added controller, but two more RISC processors and more cache. EQL scales linearly, something the aging IBM, HP, and EMC platforms can't do.

Good explanation on the diff's, but I'm not buying it --literally. The All In One boxes may be more 'One Size Fits All', but in general, products that do everything tend to only one thing exceptionally well. I have both FC (EMC) and iSCSI (EQ) in my environment and can still managed to levergage both extremely easily. Not to mention Storage Virtualization is bridging different technologies for those who invested in this stuff long before the All in One's started coming out.

Blah...Blah...Blah. The proof is in the pudding!
IBM has not benchmarked this product in Microsoft's ESRP application performance sizing validation tests (because they can't compete!). However, another vendor posted results for a similar product that also leverages LSI technology that is in the DS3300. The report shows 5,000 users requiring 30 database disks plus 6 log disks, for a total of 90 IOPS per disk. EqualLogic provided 174 IOPS per disk, supporting 5,000 users on 16 disks.

You should read more about EQ. They outperform you far. Try to read the testemonials at eq

I'm an IBM techie, and I have to say that the technical content of this presentation is incorrect. DS3000's are available as the 3200, the 3300 and the 3400. SAS, iSCSI and FC front ends respectively. The backend drives are all SAS, so no, you can't just mix n match FC and SATA. This video is doing more harm than good you muppet.
