Hoping to be giving this a try myself in the very near future ... have a
Coolermaster case, three 4-in-3 hotswap drive cages (when they eventually
turn up), 5 x 1Tb drives (more needed unfortunately) and a 2.53GHz P4 mobo
to run it all on...

Hoping to run SlimServer, HomeVisionXL and maybe HomeGate web server on it
too...
