I'm going to throw in something completely different as I'm on this whole low power/low noise/super cheap kick and now have my asterisk server running on my WRT54GS and am also now building up my new NAS system using Unslung with the NSLU2. Hookup a 1TB to 1.5TB USB enclosure to this and you are good to go. I'm only doing 500GB but there are 1.5TB USB boxes on the market. Plus there is two USB ports, I'm not sure if you could do an LVM or not but its worth looking into. http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Unslung/HomePage --j Sean Waite wrote: > > I would recommend FreeNAS as well, been using it for quite some time > and have been very pleased with it.
