I think the best option is to just build it your self using similar 
components which I have looked at before. My ideal is build a system 
where you can extend the storage easily by adding another box instead of 
either replacing the HDD's with bigger HDD's or having multiple targets 
for the data. One target whose storage can be expanded by simply adding 
another box. However, that is harder in practice to work out
