We have an EMC AX150i here and it works very well, but EMC's policy  
makes it pretty expensive.  We just added 8 720 GB drives to our  
unit.  The drives could be purchased commodity for about $80-120, but  
to put them into the EMC box we had to purchase "certified" units with  
the mounting sleds for $500 per.  Seemed like a pretty steep markup at  
the time.

Otherwise, no complaints.
