Project turned out good, so far.
   Ended up having to build my own box which was a huge cost savings.
   Photos at http://jperkins.net/-s/For_NLUG/.

Power supply: 400 watt Seasonic Platinum Fanless, Model SS400FL (over kill on power)
   Mother Board:  ASRock, N3700-ITX,
      Memory:  8 Gig (yes over kill, but got it cheap)
      CPU:  Intel Quad Core Pentium, up to 2.4 Gig Hz
   OS:  Debian.   Found limits to both Free NAS and Open Media Vault
   Total cost, $300, an 80% savings over store bought.

        For a few years I have been wanting to set up a home server
    and time has come.   LOOKING FOR COMMENTS

    Requirements:
        1)  Low power consumption.   (I am cheap)
        2)  No fans
        3)  Life expectancy longer than my own.
        4)  SMB server
        5)  Web server (run coppermine+)
        6)  BackupPC server
        7)  Other servers to be determined.

    Right now I am thinking of doing:
         Operating System:    OpenMediaVault (Also considered
    NAS4Free, formally FreeNAS)
         CUP:  Atom Quad ~1.7 Gig Hz
         Mother Board, Looking at Supermicro MBD-A1SAM-2550F-0,  uATX,
    $260
              Over kill, but covers all of my requirements.
              Have no clue where it gets its power from.  Is it just 12 V?
         Case:   Ordered, delivery this week.
