Paul Venezia senior contributing editor of the InfoWorld Test Center and The Deep End blog, did a review of the EqualLogic PS6010XVS.
The 6010XVS scored a very impressive 9.2 overall, which rates the highest of any product reviewed in 2010 by the InfoWorld Test Center.
Here are a few excerpts from the article with a link to full article:
"EqualLogic's new code keeps tabs on how data is being accessed..."
"During a period of intense utilization on the array, I walked around behind it and yanked out the active controller..."
"Version 5 of the EqualLogic firmware brings a host of new features to the EqualLogic storage line, but the major benefit to the Dell PS6010XVS is the dynamic storage tiering capability."
"The EqualLogic PS6010XVS represents yet another impressive product from Dell."
