I thought it was just trying to bundle up for winter.
Let's see.. hardware I use at home...
It's all kind of scattered about throughout different rooms, so I'll just post one pic(doesn't even have a readynas in it, heh)
Home PC:(yes, it's actually running, the fans just look still because of the camera)
Intel e6850 core 2 duo @ 3.87ghz
2GB ram
2x WD raptor 150GB raid 0 volume
Using onboard NIC on an Abit IP-35 Pro motherboard
Network switches and routers:
Netgear WNR854T router
Netgear GS108 switch
Airlink AGIGA8SW 8-Port 10/100/1000 switch
cat-5e cables
The airlink switches aren't anywhere near as fast, don't support jumbo frames, but they work reasonably well with no issues. I'm a wired kind of guy, needed some inexpensive switches and they get the job done.
Netgear Digital Entertainer eva-8000
Buffalo Linktheater PC-P3LWG/DVD
NV with Seagate ST3320620AS Barracuda 7200.10 x4
Various drives in the NV6
Sandisk, LG, and Memorex flash drives(various capacities)
A couple USB hdd's, but I'd have to go find 'em to get the model numbers.
