In this three-part report, the Taneja Group will first review the current barriers to wider adoption of VDI, focusing on key storage challenges, and look at how Dell's EqualLogic PS Series iSCSI SAN arrays, especially the new PS Series XVS hybrid SAS/SSD models, help customers overcome these problems. In Part 2, they will validate these claims via benchmark performance tests and from interviews with customers. In Part 3, they will test performance under additional deployment scenarios and dive deeper into the technology at the heart of the XVS hybrid arrays.
