I am currently setting up a FreeBSD box that is currently running some ugly kind of Linux (Mandrakelinux?). It currently has 350 GB of data residing in Samba shares so I am thinking about exporting storage to a NAS device. So I am looking for advice or comments on this move. I am attracted by a small form factor device but I also know about software that zombifies a normal PC into a NAS device (FreeBSD-based OpenNAS). Another issue is an eventual backup to another portable device. Does NAS allow for this? Any comments welcome. Peter __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
