Yes.

We are on our second SAN. Our first SAN had an untimely demise and caused our vendor to make some normally unheard of concessions. :)

Aside from some HW problems with that first unit, SAN's are very nice.

Ours ( EMC CX600, about 750 Gig usable ) is quite fast.

There is currently a job running on our production SAP instance, that has in fact been running now for 8 days, doing lots of full table scans ( a slight
case of bad design ) and it has added only about 1 centisecond to our average response time due to buffer busy waits and db_file_scattered_reads.

Not bad.

Is anyone putting datafiles on SAN storage? Success? Horror? Tell me a story.
