My Thecus N2100 arrived
Posted by coldtobi | 26 Jan, 2008, 20:22My new toy finally arrived: My Thecus N2100, the winner of my "which-NAS-fits-me-best"-competion.
Here's a brief summary of its key features, as already told in the above article:
- not sealed. (Have-to-open for installation.)
- two options for "own linux on the box": Reflash with debian kernel, or run debian in an chroot.
- comes with128 MB DDR-RAM; expandable up to 512MB with standard DDR memory module.
- 2 Ethernet interfaces, both Gbit
- 3 USB2.0, additionally 1 internal. (that hidden by the case. Needs mod too utilize.)
- Debian supported, can be installed with sotck debian installer.
- Internal mini-PCI slot. Can be used for WLAN, if the two GBits are not enough.
- Intel XScale 80219 CPU @ 600 MHz. FAAAASST!!!
Together with two Samsung Spinpoint F1, HDJ753 -- with a combined storage of 1.5 Terrabytes -- and and upgraded with 512MB DDR Bar, this is a very good hacking opportunity. As my plans include hacking for it, I created a dedicated category for that topic.
Have fun!
(First pictures I made are currently on my camera and will be added soon....)
