For those using Unix/Linux, would this provide the queuing needed for those
apps with numerous parallel writes?

 As an example the ethernet card you're probably using right now. If a card
tries to transmit at the same time as another card on the same network
segment, they detect the collision, wait a short period, and retry. As long
as you have few writers and many readers it works acceptably.
