IMHO, I would want to run ZFS on a NAS box and so it would be "a perfect  
NAS box" if it had more than 2 GB of RAM.  Also, IMHO, a perfect NAS box  
would let me have more than one drive in the chassis, for some semblance of  
redundancy.

It does look like a nice *portable* NAS box, though. :-)

Cheers,

Paul.
