I've mentioned the following before....
For a poor-person's slog which gives decent NFS performance, we have had
good results with allocating a slice on (e.g.) an X4150's internal disk,
behind the internal Adaptec RAID controller. Said controller has only
256MB of NVRAM, but it made a big difference with NFS performance (look
for the "tar unpack" results at the bottom of the page):

You can always replace them when funding for your Zeus SSD's comes in (:-).
