We monitor a SAN this way, and while it works there are some drawbacks, at least for us. For our application, the SAN is partitioned into many volumes, each mounted by a different server, so to collect the total statistics you have to add up all of the volumes from all of the servers. Also, our SAN provides virtual storage, so if you add up the storage available for all of the servers, the total is far more than the actual storage physically in the SAN. We ended up writing scripts that collect the SAN's statistics via command-line to feed into Zenoss, which works much better for us.

This device does not present any data on the snmp-protocol, but it would be possible to log on to a (samba)-share on it, and get information on used bytes / percentage left.
