[edit] Spelling and captitalization

Fibre Channel is a proper noun and thus is always capitalized. Please do not un-capitalize it. I have proposed a standard for capitalization of industry jargon here. Please stop editing these articles until the matter is settled in a Wiki fashion!

It's also ALWAYS spelled "Fibre" when referring to the protocol instead of the glass. FYI.--SFoskett 19:13, Sep 1, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Apple Promotion

The caption for the link to Apple sounds like an advert to me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.39.153.79 (talk • contribs) 15:47, December 7, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate Article

There is a very similar article at Fibre_channel_port. I don't know the protocol for merging and don't have time to figure it out right now. Hopefully someone else finds this. --Lukus 23:26, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Done. Smallpond 19:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] add 3PAR to Fibre Channel Storage

Please add 3PAR (http://www.3pardata.com) to "Fibre Channel Storage". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.126.187.138 (talk • contribs) 15:27, June 13, 2006 (UTC)

I think the storage companies should all be deleted. Mentioning the companies is
just advertising - not real information. Its against the Wikipedia rules. Also,
mentioning some and leaving out others is unfair. I propose removing the sections
"Fibre Channel Storage" and "Storage Virtualization Software and Hardware"
which are just collections of links to the respective companies. Smallpond 14:05, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Per the guidelines, I deleted the sections that were just collections of ad links. Smallpond 20:37, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] can someone add a picture

What does the Fibre Channel plug look like? An example of some periferal would be nice. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.131.2.235 (talk • contribs) 16:01, July 2, 2006 (UTC)
