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.
