Ghetto NAS using mini-itx board

sid · 5 Apr 2009 at 13:37

I've got the following kit inbound and tbh this is a mish mash of stuff.

I'll be using the Gigabyte board Atom CPU built in

I've got 2x1gb DDR533 on order but I guess I can only use 1 stick of that

IDE 160gb Drive for testing and SATA dvd for installation.

I'm thinking of installing freenas to the usb drive actually

PSU will be a OCZ 620W (talk about overkill)

Theres no case atm so will be testing on the open. I'm thinking of getting one from the competitor

I'm a big fan of nice cases so dont want to skimp but i'd rather not spend more on a case than the pc lol
