I said this before and I am trying to catch some attention again. For gamers or people who wants cheap blu-ray out there in the community, note that the Sony PS3 is potentially a killer Linux server that should be millions of times more powerful than the NAS boxes.
The PS3 allows you to: 1. Swap in bigger nard disks seamlessly 2. Install Linux as dual boot 3. Plug in USB hard disks (there are 6 USB ports) In terms of quietness, the PS3 is normally noiseless until the fan kicks if the machine starts to overheat. That happened to me after I left it on all night in a closed cabinet. I have a PS3 but do not have the Linux skill to install Slimserver on it. So I will have to bribe a Linux friend to do it for me sometime in the future. -- agentsmith SB2/Pioneer DV-S733A - Benchmark DAC1 - Naim Nait 5i - Naim Ariva Speakers.
