The hard part is the cost.
Unlike at home, there are a few more things required:
Those might include (but not limited to):
local RAID (*)
mirror to remote-site
versioned backup
off-site backup archives
And every piece of that puzzle needs its own:
fiber
ethernet
physical space
cooling
electricity
management (support team)
All the above need be redundant and enterprise quality (to minimize downtime and errors).
Someone once told me the price calculated for each GB. I thought he was crazy, and then did the math myself. (he was quite sane)
(*) or more commonly storage arrays from HDS/IBM/etc, which start at 100K+ and go north (way way way north)
