On the "SAN on a budget" note...

This looks interesting, http://www.coraid.com/.
~$2500 gets you a 3U 10 blade shelf, you just supply any ATA
(not SATA) drives you want.  In fact, you can take a drive
out of a machine, stick it on a blade and mount it back on the
same machine.  No special formating.  ATA-over-Ethernet.

I have only gone over the glossies.  Though for the price, I am
a bit interested in messing with it at home.
