Making Network Storage System Questions

I am thinking of starting a project and would like some opinions. I have this subwoofer box

I have already put a 250w powersupply inside of it and hooked it up to the cord comming out of back. I removed the ATX cable from it and connected the greeen wire to a switch and a ground to the switch. The switch works perfectly and turns powersupply on and off as it should. I plan on putting atleast 4 hard drives inside this. I am wondering is there anyway to hook say 4 hard drive up to something that'll have a cat5 female connector so I can plug a cat5 cable into it and plug into my router and share this device?

yes, an epia motherboard for example.

If you're looking for something that you can hook up to ethernet, you would've been better off with the atx connector intact There exist embedded devices that do that, but they're generally expensive, part of an integrated solution, and not real fast. I prefer the flexibility and expandibility of a real computer. An epia will work fine, or a mobile-on-desktop like the Core Duo 1. Put Linux on it, run Samba, done.
