NFS + Load Balancer

[Aterea Brown]

is nfs the best way to share the files on this partition?
why not use gfs?
if you used nfs you could have a single point of failure in your nfs server.
just my 2c worth.

Greetings :

I'm working on a solution for website that is used mainly for movies 
download. The total size of all files are about 5 TB.
I'm going to setup a solution as the following :

1) NAS ( around 6 TB , 12 X 500GB, Raid 1 and 5 ) .
2) 6 web-servers behind a hardware-load-balancer.

All those machines will be running Redhat 5 ... I'm thinking to have 
large partition on the NAS and mount it on each one of those web-servers.

My Questions are : Does the Redhat default kernel support exporting such 
a large file system ? Would you please share your experince on a 
solution like this ?

Thoughts, suggestions and assistance are all highly appreciated,
Regards,
