Economy Shared Storage

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the right page for this inquiry.

I just want to ask about file management & storage solutions for a small media team. I know it's hard to harmonize economy and performance.

Or at least please, refer me to a link or a resource about small-group, economy shared-storage solutions? At least I want to have some references when we meet and discuss with our IT team.

Some stuff that I need basic info:

- storage size requirement. What is the ideal storage capacity of a file server for a small media team?
- bandwidth/speed requirements: say, 2 video editors, DV/HDV...how can we measure?

Here's our team's composition:

video editor - 3
graphics - 2
audio - 2
office - 5


primary acquisition files:
HDV/DV, m2t, mp4, QT | wav, mp3, PSD,


Thanks.

...BTW, meeting with our IT support in 2 hours !

Thanks Bob. Please link me to your reply
