Thinking of swapping my Shuttle PC for a NAS
I've got a Shuttle, it sits there running ABC for torrents and sharing a folder full of MP3s. That's it.
I'm thinking of getting rid of it and replacing it with a NAS drive, installing the torrent software on my server box and maybe using it (if I can) to serve the Xbox for media. Is this likely to be a good solution? And what's my Shuttle worth if I were to try and sell it? Shuttle SN45G with 1Gb of OCZ Dual Channel DDR, an AMD XP-3200+, a 250Gb drive and a (rather nice) Samsung SH-182M optical drive. It currently has an ATI 9200 video card in it but I've got a 128Mb Nvidia 6600GT DDR3 Dual DVI card I'd rather supply as Mark gave me the 9200 and it feels wrong to try and sell a system with a donated card. The 6600GT works fine, but it touches the cover if it's on. It also has an uprated 'silent' PSU and I swapped the main fan for a quieter one.
