I'm looking for the same stuff and I should acquire this one:

- Shuttle Box
(http://www.shuttle.com/new/product/barebone/specs_b.asp?B_id=3D7) f= or the
main PC. You will have to add the processor (something like a Intel P4), the Hard Disk and a screen if you're not planning to plug it to your TV.

- D-Link AirPlus Router which is allowing a Wirless Hi-Speed connection
(if your house is big, I encourage you to upgrade the antennas in order
to allow wireless connexions all around your house)

Good luck!
Martin

=C0=A0: ukha_d@xxxxxxx Objet=A0: [ukha_d] Home Server recommendations ??

All -

A newcomer to this list, so apols if I am raking over
old questions.

I am getting towards installing the "super quiet,
always-on, broadband gateway, WiFi base, file server
"thing" for home.=A0

Machine needs to be in a cupboard somewhere, run a
day-to-day role as above (plus light use as a
MS-Office tool single user machine) and upgradability
if I get carried off into the home automation gig (!)

Can this group offer any recommendations on either
hardware spec, suppliers of same or useful web sites
would be most appreciated.

BTW - not interested in screamingly fast, latest
gadget approach.=A0 Reliable, quiet & expandable is the
thing, even if last year's technology.

TIA - David
