Must...resist the urge.... To buy more hard drives...

I'll probably buy a j1900 board for my pfsense router, and repurpose the current 1037u celeron based board as a nas in my lian li pc-q25 case.

This is the current setup, sorry for the messy desk.



O and totally off topic, this router rocks.

I ended up buying one of these to dip my toes into the water. http://www.buffalotech.com/products/network-storage/home-and-small-office/linkstation-220

Fry's had it on sale. I picked up 2 Hitachi NAS 4TB hard drives. I also gave into temptation and bought a new tower, Corsair 900D to make a hard drive enclosure.

I think you would be surprised how easy it is to setup a freenas type server nowadays.. esp with help from bitog if you get stuck.

dedicated nas setup is a waste of time and $$, just buy a sata drive and stick in your main PC and share it out.
