Thanks. Very similar to the Thecus boxes, but they seem to use a
beefier RISC processor. TomsHardware even has a review on two of them
which seems very favorable. Price is in the same $500-600 range for the
X6 and 600. NV
I may have to revice my thought and look at something like the Buffalo
TeraStation/TeraStation Pro RAID5 which come iwth HDDs. for 700-800 I
can get either model with 1 TB of storage. It will cost me at least
that to get my own chassis and put drives in it. The TeraStations are
cheaper then I thought after my discounts.

Nice-looking boxes that meet your requirements. Even better, they
automatically build RAID for you -- put in two drives, it mirrors.
Three drives, it establishes RAID5 automatically, and as you add drives
it expands the array for you.
Slick looking systems, though I have yet to take one for a spin.

-No SCSI drive support needed
-SATA preferred
-GigE required
-RAID1 required, RAID5 preferred
I'll supply my own drives, just need the chassis. Plan to use
this to dump syslogs for 100+ network devices to, so it doesn't need to
be fancy.
