There's a difference between "faster" and "acceptable".
SSD may be faster but a lot of people have found the speed of spinning
disks perfectly acceptable.
Perhaps the same situation may be said for local vs remote SAN?

While one may assume that remote may be slower, that's not always the
case. When we centralized from a bunch of little older machines to a
beefed up central iSeries (at the time) the remote performance improved.
Remote SAN may give you a performance boost if you have great
communication, go from spinning to SSD, etc. But it may not. The
question then becomes "ok, if it doesn't speed it up, will the slowdown be
enough to really impact us?" And "impact" can be subjective.
