Yes network speed is a problem, your are right! With the storage capacity I have to add to my though, that I would need 3 x 2 TB distributed over 3 machines, so every computer only needs 2 TB.
I don't know glusterfs much, I only like the benefits. In term of hardware requirements I know for example that zfs don't need much CPU power, but a fer amount of RAM. Would this be the same with gluster?

The problem is that anything on the budged doesn't have decent network + enough storage slots.
Maybe a homemade workstation with AMD ryzen could do the trick - but this is way over the budged compared to raspberry Pi-s
