I am pretty sure LaCie makes larger setups as well, but expect ~$2500 for a 3TB solution. Would a 1TB do?
I am actually adding a 300GB network drive to my current setup, totalling 900GB of networked storage. All of the network storage devices use NFS, FTP and SAMBA. I don't know what protocol mac's use.

OSX is a BSD based OS so if you have Unix boxes on your net a Mac will behave the same way.
Mac OS X can talk to the most popular file server protocols on every major server platform in the market today — including AFP, SMB/CIFS, WebDAV and NFS file services running on Mac OS X Server, AppleShare, UNIX, Linux, Novell NetWare and Windows NT, 2000 and XP servers.
