[Discuss] D-I-Y NAS enclosures



Just a follow up, I ordered today, the price dropped to $289 - $10
NEWCUSTOMER10 coupon, which brought it to $279 shipped with a "free" LG
DVDRW.

This is for the model with the 200W PS, 1GB Dimm, and 160GB HD. Both of
which will be recycled to a friend or given to the BU BUILDS group.

I agree with Tom, there is not much out there in low power,
do-it-yourself NAS configurations at the moment. But drawing 40W with
4HDs and Prime95 I think I have a winner on my hands.

This will be replacing a DNS-323, likely with a FreeBSD/ZFS install.
