<div><br>You'll want to read about the network/block-device drivers like NBD, GNBD, iSCSI and ATA over ethernet. These make a daemon running on another machine appear to be a block device on the local machine. These block devices can be joined together with the software RAID or LVM systems to make a larger device you can put a filesystem on.
