Yes, thanks, sure. But I just won an ebay auction on a Netra X1 (for 30b, :-)), and I'm now desperately waiting for the box do ship. However, as it comes without hard-drives, I was wondering if i would have to buy a drive <137GB or if I could give a 500Gig drive and a PCI-IDE Card a try. It has 1Gig of Ram, should be enough for file serving and routing, I guess. By the way, what is that configuration-card(-slot) good for? Looks like an ordinary PC/SC slot? Can I do anything with it (like access control or something?) Thanks, Chris
