I agree, you're better off with either an Infrant, or a Mini/Nano ITX
based board.

Here is another option in the ~20W range:

This board would be fine, but only works with Linux/BSD and not
windows.

Another good option is to use an older laptop.  You can easily get
something in the $200-300 range that will have USB2 for connecting an
external disk.  Most good laptops (like a Thinkpad T30 or similar) can
be tuned to run at lower speeds, which can reduce their power usage to
15-20 watts.  Especialy with the LCD turned off.  It would require a
minor ammount of tweaking to do things like not go into sleep mode with
the lid closed, but that's easy.
