It's not technically a NAS but alot of people are going for the HP Proliant Microserver at the moment. It's only £140 (if you include the £100 cashback)
You have to install your own OS, there's loads of options, but it does have 4 drive bays with the possibly to use the CD/DVD drive bay as a 5th slot. It also takes a couple of PCI cards and has USB if you want to add a wireless adapter.
I've got one with 1 x 250Gb drive and 2 x 2Tb drives running WHS 2003. It sits in the corner under a desk running 24/7, very quiet and very small.

Going to whack a bit more memory in it and 2 x 2 Tb drives (for now 
) then install WHS 2011. Reckon should come in at just over £300 for a 2TB RAID1 NAS that does a lot more besides. 
Thanks for putting the seed in my mind
