What kind of external RAID systems do you connect your Sun servers to? I've talked to Oracle/Sun and haven't been able to get a solution even similar to the 4540 systems. I'm hoping to find something that will allow a couple disk controllers to a subsystem. Even one would be an improvement. That way if I have to I can setup a ZFS pool in whatever RAID config I want across multiple controllers and disks. I'm figuring a 2TB database will choke if I only have one controller handling more than a dozen or so disks.
Dell's solution doesn't sound right to me. We've looked at HP. They are more expensive with similar hardware to what Dell is offering.
