I know what is SAN.  I wrote 'SAN or NFS' since you also mentioned both
solutions as posibility.  Anyhow, SAN does not mean data mirroring (you can
have things like JBOD or RAID-0 on SAN too, but not common 
configuration). Accessibility through multiple paths is optional 
feature that adds to
complexity and costs additional $$$.

Typing this, what does this have with the topic of using Cyrus?  It's the
storage.  Cyrus will work with SAN as happy as it will work with local drives.
