I just want to build a small mitxfor daily use + torrent + occasional video decode using handbreak for Ipad(kid cartoon). By "Handbrake" did you mean en code instead? Depending on fast you need the jobs to be this is the key point to whether or not an i5 is appropriate. True, i seldom tim...

We have an i5 NUC outfitted with an 8 GB sodimm and a 250 GB M.2 SSD. As I mentioned it has been great for what we do, but that has not included video encoding. I guess a couple considerations for video encoding: 1) The speed will be lower than that of a comparable desktop Core i5 or i7 for encodin...

I'm not transferring much data, certainly not more than 5 GB/month. Tunnelr does look interesting, though. not too expensive either. The thing is, though, I'm already paying for the Linode, so rolling my own doesn't add any cost (besides my time, but setting up VPN won't take much time at all). I t...

if you end up with a relatively decent set of hardware ... why not try virtualizing pfSense ... this way you aren't wasting an entire hardware kit on just pfSense. I've had a couple people at work looking for the newer T/S model Sandy Bridge CPUs ... plus some cheap ram & Intel NICs ... you can...

Have you considered adding a PCIe x1 SATA controller card to your existing Atom-based board to allow you to connect up to six SATA devices? It looks like you can purchase a pre-assembled NAS more affordably than you could build one from completely new components. Hi JustAnEngineer , I was thinking ...

Any decent NAS "box" should be able to do what you provide. The Windows Home Server (2011) suggestion is also a good one but I don't have any on hand experience of this. To give you a quick idea my "home server" setup is a Buffalo Linkstation Duo hooked up to a *temporary* Phili...
