Re: I actually quite like this idea
Would be even nicer if they could get the drives powered by PoE...
Quite. PoE powered drive enclosure with little ARM board presenting iSCSI over couple of 1GbE (or better) interfaces would be neat. With PoE+ you could probably power couple of disks if the ARM board is frugal enough.
Someone had a similar idea back in 2009...
