We've had Exchange 2010 running on vSphere 4.1 VMs with EQL SAN (15K SAS) and no problems, performance is great. I've also seen 2010 running on SATA storage in RAID5 and again, no complaints. I imagine all SAN hardware of this class shows little discernable performance difference if spec'd adequately and paired with decent back-end network gear and servers. So long as you're covered by a reliable backup solution, Veeam seems great, you're laughing. DR-wise, cloud-based services are the way to go if you don't have multiple sites, though I've seen nearby schools work together to host each other's (encrypted) data, is that something you've considered?

Apologies, I should have directed my 'PM' intention to gshaw. Thanks Garsh
