Here is what we have:
1 central file server cluster for all client assets. You check out a file from the server and use a local copy while the original stays on the server. When it is approved it then replaces the original file unless someone else has it checked out at the time.
All files are backed up each night onto a seperate hot-swap hard drive (200 gig) and removed from the main server.Users can also use the server through a VPN. The cost for an entry level IP based SAN starts around 15k. Fibre goes into the 100k range. We use an IP based system with a hardware firewall and hardware VPN. The SAN switch router is software based.
