It's been my experience that once you tell the chassis to go 10 gig, the 1 gig ports stop working- the only version I had tested that with was 3.1. 4.0 may have different results.
Sounds like you're doing a single chassis setup.. what you need to look at is total bandwidth delivered to clients at a given moment. So- if you're needing 3 systems to possibly hit Dnx 185, the math needs to be done for the number of possible streams.
Your reseller should be able to run a config tool to determine that you're getting what you might need. A Network degraded warning can make life un-fun.
It will run rings around your lanshare.. you'll like it.

So a 16TB model would likely accomodate that rather easily (100 hours of DNxHD175 is around 7.5TB). I occasionally do some TV work where I work in DNxHD185 all the time (I usually work from single internal SATA drives for that, not from the Lanshare).
