How well do Netapp storage appliances work with Macs?

We want to use them directly as file service storage and also storage for servers (email, data base, etc.).

They work fine, but it depends a bit on how you've configured them. In particular, if the filer is set up to require kerberos v5 credentials for NFS, Macs will not be able to use them via NFS under MacOS X 10.4. Macs can access them over SMB, but performance is slower over SMB compared to NFS. If you don't need kerberized NFS, I am not aware of any issues.
