Not that I have used it/etc, but I have heard that ATAoE would be an
ideal solution for this. It would be interesting to hear about off the
shelf NAS solutions which support ATAoE (or can be co-erced to support it).

If you were able to recompile the kernel on your NAS to add NFS support,
I imagine you could add ATAoE support.... apparently it is quite simple,
I think other people have even posted examples of how easy it is to
setup to this list in the past.
