What do you have, what do you recommend, and why?

Asking as I’ve got a lot of spare components lying around that I’m planning on turning into a NAS. If it doesn’t work out I’ll buy a pre-built enclosure and reuse the drives.

    I’m using an old Dell i5, but it also has three USB TV tuners and runs NextPVR with comskip.exe - it sees daily use at the main TV in the house.

    It’s power hungry at about 100 watts so I have it and the plasma TV hooked up to AGM batteries and a combined charger inverter which fills them when the sun is shining.
