It’s an Aoostar R1. A mini PC with an Intel N100 and two HDD drive bays. It’s going to be my new NAS.

    Just remember that “Linux is not Windows” and to “go in” like It’s your very first time using a PC and you’ll be fine.

    This is the kind of product I want to see. Inexpensive NAS hardware and chassis which lets the user install their own OS. I wouldn’t be complaining this much if we could do that with Synology’s entry-level DS line but we can’t and it’s annoying because they and QNAP are some of the few who price the entry-level well (in my opinion, that is). It’s really hard to build an entry-level NAS under $200 unless you’re going used and have a chassis handy.

    Good luck and let us know how it goes. I should bookmark these guys
