"solutions") in the way of LARGE file servers. Any experiences out there? Do any of the vendors in this area include support for Apple's AFP and the like? A flexible NFS is a must but we're gonna have to go much further than that. Anyone willing to share their experiences with AUSPEX, EPOCH, or similar hardware/software is most welcome to reply :-) ... Vendors are also welcome to reply, directly to me of course. Oh, I need some numbers in the way of $$$ as well if possible.
