Well, then the NFS server would be a single point of failure.  I have
multipathing on the external storage, so I could technically lose,
either a disk, a scsi cable, a controller card, or an entire server, and
everything keeps on trucking.

If the servers don't need to access the storage as a block device, why
not just NAS / NFS?  That reduces the complexity even further.  :)
