You can get 15 disks per SCSI controller these days. How many
disks per FC controller can you get, I wonder?
256, if I remember right.
However, whether it's a good idea to connect that many disks to the same
loop remains to be a question of "good idea/bad idea".
NetApp et al reccommend you don't connect more than 28 disks (two
shelves) to a 1Gbps FC loop, 48 to a 2Gbps loop, and 96 to a 4Gbps loop.
Which makes sense, as you can easily saturate the bus with that many
devices.
