    Building my own NAS, some help required

    Hi All,

    Was on the market for NAS, but whatever I liked was around 600$. I figured I could put together small comp and use it as a NAS.

    Here's what I plan to use:

    COOLMAX CS-480-Black W/O PSU Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower - $24.99

    Foxconn K8S755A-6ELRS 754 SiS 755 ATX AMD Motherboard - $37.99

    EDIMAX EN-9230TX-32 10/ 20/ 100/ 200/ 1000/ 2000Mbps PCI Gigabit Fast Ethernet Adapter - $15.99

    POWMAX 6100A SFX12V 230W Power Supply - $14.99

    CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Kit System Memory Model VS1GBKIT400C3 - $52.99

    AMD Sempron 64 2600+ Palermo 1.6GHz Socket 754 Processor Model SDA2600BXBOX - $29.99

    Scythe S-FLEX SFF21D 120mm Case Fan - $9.99

    Total comes to $186.93.

    I already have 2x 1tb HDDs. Also, got older AGP videocard, which I won't really need in this comp anyway.

    I plan to use it as network storage, run torrent/p2p clients on it , and upnp and web servers. So, what do you guys think it this setup enough for what I want? Any suggestions and recommendations are welcome.
