For FalconStor, did you contact them directly or talk to a var?

I don't know of any major vendor that handles resells FalconStor anymore,
although I read a article that sayd HDS was going to pick them up.  All
the major vendors have purchased one of the other dedup vendors.  I know
that NexSan packages the FalconStor engine with their own disk, and I
believe CHI corp (a var) sells Falconstor.

FalconStor and Quantum were in our list when we evaluated and purchased
our system.  We bought a DataDomain.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Dedupe Storage Appliances Question

Hello all, I am sure this topic has been covered, but I am about to issue
an RFI and RFP for a new dedupe storage appliance for our TSM environment.
 I was curious on your opinions on who the leading players were in the
market that work well with TSM.  I want to have 4 candidates.  My short
list includeds:

EMC DataDomain
IBM ProtectTier
Sepaton

Need a fourth.  Maybe Quantum???  What are your thoughts!  I appreciate
the time, thanks!
