If NAS works the same way and looses connection and doesnt automatically reconnect, then I guess using NAS wouldnt be that good of a solution for recording shows. That's a bummer.
Then I go back to my orginal question. Is there some external storage box I could connect directly to my server to add more drives?

I don't have any issues with lost connections and my FreeNAS server, but maybe it's because I use UNC paths to connect
BTV does not support recording directly to the NAS devices
I use one the 1TB version of this device (and I can record to it):
