New NetApp SAN
We've got our brand new NetApp SAN in place and have been putting it through it's paces. Overall, it will allow us to offer high speed (15k RPM SAS drives + 1TB of solid state cache) and high availability (2N head-end redundancy + N+2 drive redundancy) storage to our dedicated and colocation customers, while also forming the backbone of our new cloud and backup services. Right now, things are still early, but I want to give everyone a heads-up that these services will start coming available over the coming weeks.

I should have more news on the new offerings and pricing in the next week or so. Right now, we're hoping to provide iSCSI and NFS options in the $0.30 per GB range, with no extra bandwidth or utilization fees for use on our own network.
