I don't record TV directly to my NAS, but here is what I have considered:
My htpc has the Ceton InfiniTV 4 cable card tuner together with a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 for non encrypted and SD broadcasts from Comcast. Win7 Media Center stores the recordings locally.

I don't know how Media Center Extenders (aka XBox 360) work with these recordings.
Media Center stores the recordings on a local drive letter. If an iSCSI volume were mounted on my htpc, my thinking is that this would be a way to record directly to a ReadyNAS.
