I designed a virtualized san and have been running it in production for 
the last two years...  Speaking from experience... stay away from EMC!  
We have several storage systems in production.. from multiple vendors... 
and I've had nothing but problems with the CX line of emc systems.  
Performance problems... hardware/crashing problems..  (they run embedded 
xp you know) and dead fibre port problems.  If I didn't have two of 
everything.. mirroring across cabinets with IpStor we would have had 
serious problems.

Just my two cents on the issue of 'EMC-caliber' storage...
