To close this thread, I found the following:

1. CIFS does support hard links. I ran a test linking some files as well as googled cifs+hard links. The Buffalo NAS boxes don't support NFS out of the box. One has to load new firmware to replace the OS, but the do support CIFS.

What about the RRD side of things?

After a recent upgrade of the NAS firmware and the debian server, I found problems with the nfs mounted filesystem, so I went to cifs, which for the most part appeared to work fine, apart from RRD not being able to get a lock:

2011-08-07 01:09:56 Cpool is 228.88GB, 203829 files (37 repeated, 4 max chain, 4679 max links), 4369 directories
ERROR: could not lock RRD

I'm back to trying out nfs again.
