addonics-nas01I’d love to get one of these to try but have to stick it on the want list for now.

Gone are the days of using expensive, noisy, bulky computers to serve media to our networks. Behold the Addonics NAS Adapter! This $55 doodad turns any USB drive into a network share accessible via SMB or FTP. But that’s not all! It also includes a BitTiorrent client, so you can download all those episodes of “How I Met Your Mother” directly to your USB drive while you’re at work! It acts as either a DHCP server or a client, and offers web-based management.
