MORE INFORMATION

Microsoft has verified that defining the local address of a SharePoint Portal Server 2003 content index to be on a System Area Network (SAN) device is a supported configuration. SharePoint Portal Server 2003 functions the same whether the indexes are on a physical drive or on a SAN device. Storing the indexes on a SAN drive provides the same level of reliability as using the SAN drive itself.

Microsoft does not support storing the SharePoint Portal Server 2003 indexes on a network-attached storage device.
