Hi,
A SNAP Server is a NAS device http://www.snapappliance.com/[/url]. We store backups on ours.
Is SQL Server happy to have databases on mapped drives? I had always assumed that database files had to be on a local drive, but a quick scan through BOL doesn't turn up any mention of local versus mapped drives.
The NAS will have a management page at http://_hostname_/ - the 'admin' user should have a password on it. :w00t:
HTH.
Edit: fixed link formatting.
