Quick guess would be a larger server type chassis that would hold a bunch of 
HD's and a
motherboard with a handful of PCI slots.  Then find some PCI IDE controllers 
which would
handle 4 drives per controller, three controllers plus the on board IDE would 
handle 16
drives.  Then install a minimal Ubunutu server with whatever network services 
you would
need.  You could team adapters with ALB to handle good throughput.

Hope that helps.

Jim
