Justin, NTAP filers have RAID built in, so a drive failure is soft and automatically recovered.

Using clustered configurations, the entire system is duplicated by a cluster partner. If either fails, the other takes over with NO DATA LOSS. Also, note that both partners are active and working systems, not warm standbys.

Your friend's company has, imo, made its storage management architecture much more complex and expensive by going to SAN. They are also losing performance and reliability.

They probably did not know what they had with NTAP and bought the last sales person's line.
