Yes, in my case it's a Netapp.

Thank you very much.

The speed issue is mostly disk-seek related, though, and actual 
operation will depend on the NAS itself.  Something like a NetApp can be 
faster than local disks.  NFS can be configured for synchronous writes 
where each operation is not considered complete until the server has 
first done a sync to disk.  That mode will be much slower than using 
local disks which normally are buffered, but async mode should be 
reasonably fast.
