First, it would be better to start a new subject if it's not related to the original post.

Squid need lot of disk space to be efficient and write a lot on the disk, same for samba. I would not install those on a compact flash.

Maybe something like a Lanner FW-7535 would be better. Those support both compact flash and sata hard drive if you want to install the os on a compact flash and leave the hard drive from squid/samba. Also, the gigabit ethers would be better for samba files transfer.

Also, it's hard to tell if a alix performance is enough without knowing how much user, bandwith and PPS. I not familliar with alix performance on openbsd but maybe the're someone that already posted about this. I know that some writted that the were using them, have you should search on marc.info about alix performance ?
