I know this may not be the "correct" topic for this NG, however I have read
with interest most of your posts for the better part of a year and now I
need some ideas.

I am looking for a "poor man's NAS"...I just can't believe that there isn't
a unit out there, say from Linksys or D-Link, that has a configurable
web-based RAM that allows you to add 2, 3, 4 hard drives and make a
cost-effective storage solution! I mean, they have Linux-based
Gateways/Firewalls and VPN's, why not NAS?

Anyway, I've googled to no avail and was wondering if there is another
solution that I am missing. Such as a Linux-based ISO image that you use
old PC parts with some hard drives and BINGO, you've got a NAS configurable
via web browser!

Thanks in advance!

P.S. Email me for further explanation if I've not made myself clear!
