If you want vendor specific whitepapers, best practice, implementation guides, reference architectures and case studies around View + SRM, your preferred vendor(s) will have these.

Each of my clients have different storage solutions and the best one I've worked with is using VMware View 3.0.1 Composer/Linked Clone features and utilize with NetApp NFS solutions with volume snapshot feature, Rapid Clone Utility 2.0 and SMVI to rapidly clone and provisioned massive desktop images so nicely. But if you want to know real world solutions, check out vmware and Netapp websites there are some good case studies to read. Otherwise, someone will fill in their environment and solutions accordingly.
