Hi we are experiencing the same issues however we were having these
exact problems before we moved to SAN as well. In addition now we
have an issue when you click save in excel it goes through the motions
normally. When you open the file there are not any of the changes
included however there is a numbered file in the directory with no
file extension. Our environment is still Excel / Office 2000
