Just asking is the fiber ports BiDirectional or Directional or can they support a Bond that is BiDirectional of 4GB/s or can they be trunked into 16GB/s? Bidirectional. I need about 24 GB/s banwidth sustained, yes per second. Also what type of sparse file I/O you get . I see you stated multimode. Some don't classify that as true BiDirectional Bonding.
24 gigabytes per second? Look to Fusion IO

Or TMS http://www.ramsan.com/products/products.htm
Depending on how much disk space you need and the nature of your application.
