well i have a large project, I need to create a "growable" store of
data that is redundant as it will have archival media (audio and
video). both will be HD quality media. so i am looking at a large pool
fo data.
i can build a NAS box that will last a while, but it will hit a
terminal point of capacity. and it will be a single point of access so
it will create access issues.
So a SAN to distribute both load redundancy and allow for a growing
capacity is kind of needed.
and looking at most everything out there im leery of jumping on a hype
bandwagon.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
