Now this looks pretty cool.  It's an external hard drive that goes 
beyond the usual USB interface.  This one has an Ethernet interface as 
well.
If you think about it, it's really a file server appliance.  No doubt 
it's running GNU / Linux with NFS, Samba, etc. so that it can talk to 
Windows and Linux boxes on the network.  And the administration 
interface is a web page, so it's doubtless running Apache in there as well.
I wonder what the embedded computer looks like (chipset, RAM, etc)?   
Does anybody have any hard info about the guts of this thing?  I'd love 
to know.
$100 for 250 gigs.
