[ale] NAS suggestions

[Robert L. Harris]

I need a solid NAS solution that'll give 3-5 TB without costing 50K.  
I've been using
a CoRAID solution I really liked but when doing an "mkfs" on a drive 
this morning
it threw a bad block.  As a result of dealing with the bad IO the NFS 
effectively
stopped and the whole NAS basically stopped responding to NFS traffic which
killed my ESX servers.

I'd like to stay away from something requiring dedicated cables (Fibre 
channel, etc)
if I can due to the overhead of replacing the existing gige NAS in place 
right now.
