Disregard. We have neither Fiber Channel nor Macs here in our organization. Wouldn't work well for us as we'd have to buy something to integrate the Mac XSan with the Windows network as well as adding Fiber Channel infrastructure to our network. :-(

You can't beat the price really. We have a few video editing stations connected via fiber and then one windows server that hosts the backup system/tape library. ADIC/Quantum provides the windows/linux connectivity to the Xsan. 32TB for around $38K. one dual controller array with 16TB and then a 16TB JBOD array that connects through SAS to that. The first array can daisychain three of the dumb arrays off of it. I have a ten day-long rsync going between the old Xsan and the new one right now.
