Tiny and fanless NAS setup

I'm currently running a Win7 PC with a few drives and a TV Tuner card. I want to move this setup in my IT cabinet 14x30 so I will need something that does not produce much heat and is very small. I thought of Raspberry PI since I already have 2 but it'll be fast enough. I use the NAS for backups and media. I could also replace the 5 drives I have with newer 2-3TB. Is there another type of micro computer that would fit my need?

If you mean you are thinking of running unRAID on a Pi then no. ARM isn't supported.

 

Many of us are using mini-ITX mobos though.

 

Not really sure I fully understand your post.

You want to put all that in that "panel"? I don't know why you are even calling that an "IT cabinet". You could put some useful things like the networking in there but the computer would need to go elsewhere.

 

Maybe I am still not understanding what you have in mind.
