I played with CODA a few months ago but it didn't seem to be solid, and
didn't fit my needs. Everything else I've looked at is Linux-only.
Please follow-up to the list, I'd be very interested in seeing what
other projects are available.

I don't know if DRBD [1] is a good implementation (Linux only), but it works flawlessly, replication is fast (i got ~35MB/s) and it's quite simple to get it working.
ENBD [2] isn't based on the same concept, it "exports" block devices through network via userland application, though it needs a kernel module for client side.
I'd like something like DRBD exists for FreeBSD but I'm not aware of such an implementation.

GEOM Gate does a part of this. I thing using vinum+geom gate you could get a similar setup.
However, this isn't exactly what I want - I don't need a 'mirror', I need a cluster of active machines serving the same disk data.
For what it's worth, there is an nbd port: net/nbd-server
