At one point I used a SAN with a 380GB postgresql database. There were
no issues.
Great benefit? We were able to keep a hot standby servers in case the
main server went down. In that case we would just shutdown the primary
server, and start the standby one.

We use a SAN with HP EVA boxes for our PostgreSQL servers and we have
not encountered any irregularities so far. None of our databases
are very big or under heavy load though.
