My biggest beef is that the upgradability of these things is low. It seems that when you buy a unit you are buying a capacity and improvements in disk technology don't raise it. For example, our unit uses 4 gig drives. Its max capacity is 14 4 gig drives. We'd love to put 9 or 18 gig drives in it, but the software doesn't support it. I realize 9 or 18 gig drives would raise rebuild time, but that risk should be up to us.
before i deliver myself of my opinions on upgradability, would anyone from netapp care to comment on whether that's a hardware or "supported configuration" limitation?
