The problem, I'm not just looking for a server HA, I'm looking for  
something to keep running, reading/writing while I move the actual  
storage (virtually and physically) around.

I need to be able to migrate shares between file servers and NAS  
devices without downtime. This is probably different from what the  
original poster is requesting.
