EMC VNXe 3200 vs Dell Compellent SC4020?

[AdonMalik]

Does anyone have any real world experience with either the EMC VNXe 3200 or the Dell Compellent DC4020 that can give me an idea of how they compare to one another? I'm looking to replace an aging all in one server system and am by no means a storage engineer so I'm attempting to make as educated of a decision as possible. Any pros, cons, pitfalls, etc that people could share with me about these products would be appreciated. Also it's very possible I'm missing a giant elephant in the room even attempting to compare these two solutions so if I am please speak up .

Cannot directly comment on the VNXe range however I use the VNX1 and VNX2 range (so those are the next step up the tree starting at VNX5200 from the current range) and they are bulletproof bits of kit, you get what you pay for with them so I cannot imagine the baby VNXe is going to be any thing less splendid, key difference is it has more features out of the box as its designed for smaller use than the ones we use. I'd not use any other SAN now after using VNX, have been bitten by others and just feel you won't go wrong with EMC now.
