Hitachi HUS

I wondered if anyone here is running their vSphere storage on a Hitachi HUS 100 series, and if so if I could get some feedback?

We have a total environment refresh and it's come up as an upper entry/lower mid level array that is supposed to be rock solid at a reasonably price point whilst perhaps not being as feature rich as some of the alternatives.

A technical whitepaper from Hitachi which provides some performance insights.. http://www.hds.com/assets/pdf/vmware-vsphere-5-with-hitachi-dynamic-provisioning-on-hus.pdf

Hope this helps.

Thank you, read lots of similar papers and it all helps and the reputation seems very good so far.

Bit surprised nobody here seems to be using them though :smileyconfused:
