You should ask yourself why you want to get a NAS.
If you want to get a NAS because you need networked storage, you should
get a NAS that is sufficent for your storage needs and instead use a
separate Computer, Sheevaplug or something similar to run SBS on. This
will be a lot cheaper and better unless you need the professional
storage features included on high end NAS boxes. If you really need all
the professional storage features which is included in a high end NAS,
go ahead and buy one, but don't get a high end NAS because you want a
faster CPU for SBS.
If it's important for you that the hard disk and CPU is inside the same
box, get a VortexBox appliance instead of a NAS.
