The Acer EasyStore H340 comes with 1 x 1TB HDD and room for three more drives (SATA-II). A low power Atom 230, 2 GB of Ram and an internal 256M flash storage to install FreeNAS 64 bits. This comes in a nice 7.9″ (200mm) W x 7.1″ (180mm) D x 8.3″ (212mm) H casing.
I am curious to see if the Atom 230 is enough horsepower for ZFS, anybody tried it?

Hello,
I installed FreeNas o.7 on a easyStore H340. It runs fine! If you want to know, how to install FreeNas look here.
Sorry, the how to is in german.

Thanks Jerret for your how to!
My test box is an Atom 230 with 512Mb RAM, 1Gb CF on IDE channel and two 500Gb SATA drives for zfs mirror.
The only problem i have with is low ram. 512 is not enough if you try to use unison.
With 2Gb RAM i think it’s okay for fast ethernet or wifi clients. No suitable for full speed gigabit lan.
