yes, this does require a dedicated machine. It installs a fileserver on top of FreeBSD. I guess you could install Nas4Free as a VM and then mount your external hard drive to it, but that doesn't sound very convenient.
If you don't have an extra machine laying around, that drive you were looking may be a good option.
