    Look at a AMD Zacate, I have the MSI E350IA-E45 running zfsguru and 4 western digital 2tb drives in a zfs array and its alot faster then gigabit(click for proof and thats with a 4 disc raidz), they are alot faster then a Intel Atom and really low power.

    ZFSguru NAS fileserver project

    What are you going to use for the built in torrent client? I have tried a bunch of different clients and have found qbittorent to be the best. It has a webui, is fairly light, has a built in search, does rss feeds, and is pretty much a copy of utorrent just styled different and open source.

    I had the same problem with it going back to 512K sectors. I wouldn't write to the array until this is fixed, my array is now corrupt because I tried the non destructive benchmark.

    Why is iperf reporting < 400 Mbit/sec for a gigabit network?

    Is the router a supermicro atom 230/330 board? If so that would explain it because the onboard nics are shit on those boards.

    Custom DNS servers

    Nope, unless you use a static ip on the computer. Also the new dns isn't instant, you need to wait till the dhcp lease expires or you repair or reconnect the connection.

    I am using the built in windows vpn but those settings didn't show up. But I just installed pptpd on my laptop and added a user to chap-secrets and it connects just fine. So it seems to be a network issue or something openvz related.

    22" LCD - What resolution do you prefer 1680x1050 or 1920x1080 ?

    I use 1080p, but that is because its the native resolution for my Benq e2200HD. I hate 1680x1050 because then everything is to big.

    Don't do it the hard way, use gliffy.com. You will need to sign up but you can then save 5 drawings/diagrams/whatever and it allows you to export them as jpg and png.

    ZFS Server

    It's probably in 8x Supermicro 24 drive cases, so the power supplys wouldn't be a problem but the power feed could be. Also since they are probably in 8 cases there would be a delay in pressing the power buttons unless you got 4 people there pressing them.
