Thank you for the link, but we need a definitive answer regarding the StorSimple devices. I have the same question sent in to Microsoft StorSimple support, but was hoping to hear from the community while we waited.

None of the Microsoft products ship with Log4j so you are safe, this is mainly related to Java-based applications.
