carnival operator P. T. Barnum to infamous FBI mole Robert Hanssen.

PRODUCT GUIDE: ADAPTEC SNAP SERVER 720I

The Snap Server 720i combines good administration tools, easy iSCSI
connectivity, tight integration with Microsoft Windows, a mirroring
capability that larger arrays will envy, and scalability that should
match even the fastest growing repositories. All in a compact, 1U format
at a starting price that is hard to beat. It's an offer that many SMBs
will find hard to resist.
