One thing that I noticed after we moved to the terrablock was that it took about 3-4 weeks for it to "break in." We were having many problems with the terrablock slowing to a halt and having to stop production while restarting the server.
Also, at one point in those first couple of weeks, we lost everything after making changes to most of the volumes. We were testing out renaming volumes and changing volume sizes and facilis had to remote in and wipe and recreate all of the volumes.
After enduring all of that pain though, we haven't had any of those sorts of problems and it's running pretty fast off of the 10gig switch. Now we're just having some linking issues where we'd have to unmount and remount volumes to get media back online. But that's also happened on the Isis so I don't hold that against facilis.

The current version of Terrablock allows downsizing volumes which was the last missing feature that separated it from Unity, There are some caveats though.
On PCs, it works just like unity in the scaling and decreasing of partition size. On Macs, you need third party software to handle that feature as the ability to handle the scaled partition isn't built into OSX.Mount and unmount is basically the same. You are just talking about network drives.Terrablock "Multiwrite" volumes show up in MC as Unity drives.We have been using Terrablock for many years now and are very happy with the performance.If you get roped into 4K, you can go all the way to 16 gig with your existing fibre runs. You just need to upgrade switches and workstation cards.
