Try looking into the Dell Solution. I have a F720 in house from Dell that has their 18G drives attached. If you are looking for a cheaper solution ... an F720 with Dell drives might be the way to go.
Contact your local Dell Representative

I'm in the market for something very similar to a F720 but with cheaper 18GB drive prices. I know of competitive products from Nitech and Procomm but as far as I can tell nothing but the NetApp will let me add 1 or 2 drives to the RAID set at a time. I assume this is because the NetApps use RAID 4.
Does anyone know of a NAS product which will allow me to add a drive at a time without having to reformat the entire RAIDset?
