Choice of Storage
- Servers can share the disks from same disk array - no need to buy a individual unit for each dev system.
- Achive a good throughput.
- ready to spend few bucks on adding another FC,if needed.
- add more disk space to new systems

Re: Choice of Storage
Are you using EMC PowerPath or just HP-UX Pvlink?
In case of Pvlink you can easily attach VA7410 which are ideal under HP-UX. It scales up to 105 FC disks. See http://www.hp.com/products1/storage/products/disk_arrays/midrange/va7410/index.html
You can also consider the EVA3000 or EVA5000.
The EVA3000 scales up to 56 FC disks and has a very attractive price tag.
The EVA5000 scales up to 240 FC disks and offers features like Continuous Access EVA (remote replication) See http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/eva3000/index.html and http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storageworks/enterprise/index.html
In any case you need dedicated FC HBAs for the individual arrays! In the case of the EVA you also need SecurePath SW to handle the IO pathing and transparent failover.
!!! PowerPath cannot coexist on the same server with any other IO path failover SW like SecurePath or AutoPath !!!
Cheers
