  500$ for 1TB, I dont think Seagate brand worth the extra 200$.

    actually the seagate is worth well more than $200 more than that acer, not least of which is security and customisation within the actual NAS, not to mention the acer comes with 4x500 vs 2x1tb in the seagate

The specification that I can find on Seagate's site (NAS 440 instead of 420).

I still can't find much info on the actual hardware spec. 1.2Ghz CPU which I presume would be Marvell PXA320. How much RAM? Able to run my own version of Debian or something? How does it stack up against a QNAP (which I currently have and am very happy with)?

Is this any good for streaming to PS3s? If not, what would be ideal? Any capable of transcoding mkv for the PS3?
