It'll be IOPS, not throughput, that is your bottleneck here, most likely. You might need to go to a four bay unit. That will double the ingress rate. And 7200 RPM drives are a must, that means Red Pro, 5400 are almost certainly going to be too slow.
What data is being sent to this? How much over what period of time?

Actually, don't answer that here. Post a new thread asking the question and just link to here as a reference. Put in the info about the $2K 2.5" RAID 6 idea and the NAS with SATA drives idea and let's run through some diagnostics.

It arrived today! XenServer is installed and I'll be setting up VMs tomorrow.

Awesome. Nothing like the feeling of unboxing your new server.
