I've had one of these LinkSys NSLU2 devices (a "slug") for a while, just
acting as a disk and print server. I "unslung" it (replacing the
Linksys firmware with an Open Source direct replacement) it almost as
soon as I got it - see
http://www.nslu2-linux.org/ for details
(including how to install debian on it). At first I ran it with a 1GB
flash drive as its only storage (completely silent operation!), but then
added a 250GB USB disk as backup storage. Never had any problems with it.
