I'm dying here - does anyone know when or even if they will support these?

I had this whole setup planned out but it requires eSATA + port multipliers.

I want to use ZFS, but currently cannot in that fashion. I'd still
have to buy some [more expensive, noisier, bulky internal drive]
solution for ZFS. Unless anyone has other ideas. I'm looking to run a
5-10 drive system (with easy ability to expand) in my home office; not
in a datacenter.

Even opening up to iSCSI seems to not get me much - there aren't any
SOHO type NAS enclosures that act as iSCSI targets. There are however
handfuls of eSATA based 4, 5, and 10 drive enclosures perfect for
this... but all require the port multiplier support.

Unfortunately, Solaris does not support SATA port multipliers (yet) so
I think you're pretty limited in how many esata drives you can connect.
