Looks really easy to use and very robust to hard drive failure but
the bad things about it are: It doesn't work with linux, is
overpriced and only uses USB.

so I'm wondering how to construct a robust file server that allows
heterogenous access (windows, mac, linux, plan9), is affordable,
low-power, ideally low noise, low-maintenance (I like kenf) and
preferably
can be built with little effort using of-the-shelf items.
robustness being the main criterion.
I've been looking at coraids products but they seem a bit high-
endish...
something like that but then 'smaller' might be nice.
I'm unsure about plugging usb-drives into wireless access points
(what is apple's bonjour? open in any way?)
any thoughts, experiences? (does, don'ts?)
