I agree with Steven, SAN's are really good to address a need, but for smaller companies, having all your storage eggs in one basket can (potentially) be a problem.
I have done some work for a company that uses ESA10000's, the old SCSI based storage works units. They had a few troubles with one of them, which has the data volumes for Exchange, the file server, database server etc etc. When that baby went down, so did EVERYTHING else. I guess it is a trade off between funcitonalty and risk.
