Recommended NAS Solution


I'm considering purchasing a NAS box to provide shared file storage for our home network consisting of Win XP and Linux PC's. Can anyone suggest a possible solution for our requirements? I'd prefer purchasing a dedicated solution (such as D-Link's DNS-323, if it can also be made to work for Linux boxes), rather than trying to build a solution from bare metal up.

Can anyone assist with ideas/experiences? Sorry if this is the wrong forum...

TIA,
Jon

The NSLU2 is very popular, and Linux support won't be an issue (configuration is web based, and it uses Samba for file sharing).
