I'm talking about the low-power small devices. Anybody have any
experience with these? There seems to be great value out there.
Running one of these 24/7 (versus a PC) would probably pay for itself
in a year on electricity bills.

Looks like both can run smb, nfs, torrent, webservers, and have
raid0,raid1 but the dlink one is considerably more expensive. Is the
hardware noticeably better/more capable?
