Via NAS 7800

Could this be something supported by unRAID?

Just curious what kind of case this would mount in, it's not an ordinary ITX.

 

I was going to use one of the via boards for my itx unRaid, but the vendor said good luck with performance on 4 drives.

Core Duo 2.33ghz from eBay

 

4GB OCZ Ram.

 

200GB 2.5" Hitache sata drive for boot drive & development system. (maybe I'll re purpose it for a cache??)

 

I modified the case and put one of the internal SATA ports to an eSata port.

 

I just purchased the following external case in the thoughts of creating a raid 0 parity drive using some of the spare smaller ones I have laying around.

It's not so itx any more, but it was a cool project.

I'de love to fiddle with the via board myself, but that's a $250 experiment.
