Also NAS, such as the NetApp boxes, are capable of doing this as well.
However, I'm not aware of a pure software solution, similar to Samba, that does
this. (There probably is one, but I'm not familiar w/ it.)

Yes, it's called a Storage Area Network or SAN.

Okay, don't shoot the messenger, I think the question is kind of silly myself,
but I have been directed to ask.
As Samba is open source, and we don't know (if it breaks) who we will be able
to get to support the product. AND, is there an alternative that is for sale
from a company that accomplishes the same thing (allowing for the mapping of a
drive from a windows machine to a Unix machine, primarily) that we can pay
money for...
