I'd like to purchase a blade enclosure with SAN storage. What systems like these are recommended with FreeBSD? Please comment on: HP c-class enclosure -- will some/all of the management features work? if I use hp tools (requires compat5) and linux compat, would I get all/most functionality? Is p-class better if all the "bells and whistles" of the c-class are not available? What about Dell? Not as robust but cheaper? Does Dell blade system (PE1955) with CX300 work well? If hp c-class doesn't make sense because functionality (like manageability features) are not available, then would Dell's offering be a better choice over the hp p-class? Please feel free to recommend other blade-SAN configurations that work well under FreeBSD. Thanks! Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
