Product version discussed: 5000 Series
High availability and performance are key advantages, but configuration flexibility and pricing are drawbacks

Pros

"The most valuable feature is that it has 'eight nines' availability, 99.999999 percent of the time. That is the main selling point. "

"There is a drawback related to Hitachi's configuration flexibility. The Hitachi storage platform solution is not flexible. That means that both the Hitachi and the partner presale guys have to do a lot of work to design a solution."
