Promise today announced availability of its Thunderbolt-to-Fiber Channel adapter. The long awaited adapter, previewed at NAB, allows recent model MacBooks, iMacs and Mac minis to access direct-attached enterprise storage and even Xsan. (So, OK. You need to be creative if you are using a separate metadata Ethernet network like 98% of us.)

The device runs for $799, and is sold by many Promise resellers, including Tekserve and the Apple Web Store.
