In real estate it’s said that the three keys to success are location, location, location. For video production professionals dealing with high-definition video and 2K and 4K resolutions now handled as digital data, that adage could easily become "storage, storage and more storage."

Excuse me, but did you not even try to consider Apple's X-SAN/X-Raid storage solution? I can't believe you've totally ignored that solution in this article. Makes me wonder what criteria you used to feature ANY of the fine products mentioned.
Your credibility with many FCP users will increase immeasurably if you acknowledge that Apple makes a shared storage solution specifically designed for a networked, group based FCP workflow. It's called X-SAN and it can use either Apple storage like X-Raid or other non Apple branded raids.
I don't even work for Apple, but it bugs me that you're leaving out a viable storage solution for many FCP users.
