Hosting 2003 Server with app and several XP workstations used for interfacing
with the app itself on the server.
Must be able to do VPN tunnel back to main office. Other than that its pretty
vanilla.
Not happy with current company. Local guys running out of a colo.

We've been using a Drobo Elite for about 6 months. It has seven 2 TB WD drives
in it with dual redundant disks yielding 8.36 TB of available storage. I use it
for Acronis backup images.
One of the drives failed about a week after we installed them. The Drobo
alerted me which drive had failed
I use Softlayer. I'm VERY happy with them.

I still think the best thing you can do John is go buy a server. Get something
entry level but half-decent, stick ESXi on it and just download and play with a
shedload of storage virtual appliances.
FreeNAS, OpenFilter, HP P4000 VSA, EMC Celerra to name but a few.
