I'm not sure how feasible this is but I am also interested in  
something similar, although my budget is a bit more than $0. :)

How would your type of setup deal with failover in the middle of an

There are some devices such as the Acopia ARX and RainFinity product- 
line which claim to provide NFS virtualization and failover but they  
are quite expensive.
