a dude on another forum i frequent did something like this. some day when i get the time and money i will build one similar to his. some day... Blizzhackers • View topic - Low power HTPC with 8 TB for under 600 build

a cheap little mumble/webserver like this would be pretty nice to have but idk how much i'd actually use it. if it could run m0n0wall i would be sold.
