I have been asked to look at the possibility of using a Storage Area Network at the school where I work. I would like information on when this type of storage becomes helpful; What are some real-life pros and cons to this; How do I determine if my school needs it? Any input is appreciated.

There is a very good article in the latest issue of Windows2000 Magazine that discusses Storage options including SAN's.
Also, I work for Unisys nad although I am not in your area visit our web site at Unisys.com. One of our specialties is SAN consulting and we have some very good SAN articles on our site.
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem. Also please exercise your best judgment when posting in the forums--revealing personal information such as your e-mail address, telephone number, and address is not recommended.
