I'm waiting for the parts to arrive for this setup, so I figured I'd get some thoughts about it. I'm building a NAS in order to backup my photos from my photography. I'll also be backing up recorded media, software, graphics design, etc.

HARDWARE:

Mobo/CPU: Intel D945GCLF2 w/Intel Atom 330 Processor, Intel 945GC Mini-ITX Motherboard.
RAM: 2GB DDR2 667mhz
RAID: Promise SATA300 TX4
Syba Dual Ultra IDE to 2x Compact Flash Adapter
Transcend 8GB 133x Compact Flash card (OS drive)
Hard Drives: 4x 1TB Seagate 32mb Cache Drives
Case: Apevia Qpack Black w/420W PSU

Now, I know that I probably should have gone with the WD green 1TB drives, but I already had one of the 1TB Seagates so it made sense to just continue with those.

I'll be running FreeNAS .70
