The real growth areas are broadcasting and home users. USB drives and End User NAS arrays are going to get big as people store more pictures, video, and music on their network.
But they're not going to be that big. Lori and I have had nearly all of our 600 CDs on our network for years (we were an early AudioTron customer), and they don't take up 80 Gigabytes. That says it all. I have a USB drive that would hold those 600 CDs and still leave me room to save all of my writing on it.
At some point, this industry will suffer a shakeup based on storage growth. Bigger disks win, meaning large arrays and stuff aren't going to be unless some new storage requirements come up pretty soon.
Just my thoughts.
