We are in the process of setting up a NAS for editors to work from. There is also a long term tape archive system available. 

After, or during, ingest we will generate Proxy's and copy the originals all to the NAS storage.

The question is what to do with Scratch disks?

If we set them to the individual's local machines then it should give better performance, but the scratch would not be part of the projects folder on the NAS. If it's not part of the projects folder it's unlikely to ever get backed up to the longer term archive.

Are scratch disk data really needed for long term storage? Also what if someone else, on a different workstation, wants to pickup on the project do they require the scratch disk to do this? If it's just previews and autosaves I don't think it would matter. All media is getting ingested, via prelude.
