http://www.apple.com/xserve/raid/
and
http://www.apple.com/server/pdfs/L26325A_XserveRAID_TO.pdf
seem to answer all your questions.

Basically, this unit is a Mac OS X Server providing storage over the 
fibre using the usual suspects (NFS, SMB/CIFS(Samba), AFS). Don't know 
if anybody tried this using fiber channel transport.
