NTAP's clustered configuration uses fc as its "cloud". The theoretical limit to the number of filers in the cluser is without limits, as far as I know. Thus the capacity is very large. The clusered configuration also allows pairing of filers for soft failover. Also remote backups/recoveries throughout the cloud using SNAPSHOT is supported.

Also, any filer in the fc cloud can be attached to the enterprise's LAN/WAN. There is no single entry point into the filer fc network and there is no "controller".

Now that I think about it, NTAP's NAS is rapidly becoming a SAN, but with a wider range of scalability and superior price/performance compared to EMC.
