    http://www.apple.com/xserve/raid/
    and
    http://www.apple.com/server/pdfs/L26325A_XserveRAID_TO.pdf
    seem to answer all your questions.

    Basically, this unit is a Mac OS X Server providing storage over the
    fibre using the usual suspects (NFS, SMB/CIFS(Samba), AFS). Don't know
    if anybody tried this using fiber channel transport.
