I suggest you have a very good look at NetApp, too. Oracle has been buying lots of NetApp storage and they have in the PETA(!) byte range of NetApp now. Thet also do FC these days, but they're known as marketleader in NAS (network attached storage, i.e. via Gig-Ethernet which is a lot cheaper and a lot simpler than FC).
