[mythtv-users] NAS mobo

I found a case that will take 20 SATA hard drives.  Cool!  So now I'm 
looking for a mobo that can use all 20 drives.  I can get (relatively 
inexpensive) 4 and 8 port SATA cards, so I need something that uses 
little power, has fast ethernet and can sustain the data transfer rates 
that 20 hard drives can generate.

I'm thinking server class, but at the same time, all I need is ethernet 
and disk throughput.

Any suggestions?
