Storage devices include disk drives, tape drives, RAID arrays, and Storage Area Network (SAN) file systems. Xsan administrators can tune storage devices using the Xsan administrative tools. Developers can fine-tune their applications by measuring and evaluating file-system performance using tools such as Shark and fs_usage.
