When storage center 4.0 arrived in our lab, we had to ask: "Who is Compellent?" Founded in 2002 by a group of storage and virtualization executives, Compellent targets small and midsize businesses that want high-end SAN features and low-end management hassles. The best audience for Storage Center 4.0 consists of midsize organizations whose storage needs generally scale up through about 50 TB. The company claims it can scale way beyond 50 TB for the en- terprise market. Compellent increasingly is competing with the likes of EMC's CX300 series Clari-ion line as well as NetApp's FAS 2000 and 3000 series storage area network, says Compellent senior marketing manager Bob Fine.
