The best place to hide this unit is almost in plain view, why not on that game system of yours that you're running Linux on? After all you wouldn't want to lose those precious save games, right? There are multiple reasons that you'd want to place it on your home entertainment center or your computer. for instance one of the main ones is if your computers get taken away by evil recording industry baddies or the like, who's going to think to take away your Xbox and your UPS away with it as well?


Final thoughts...
Can it do more then just serve out files? I loaded mine with uNSLUng 5.5 which has bind 9 which is a DNS server. After a few minutes and a few reboots it's now repurposed as a slave DNS server to main system as well.

Although messing with the RIAA could be fun with this project... it does have more practical uses. For instance if your house was broken into. I doubt a burglar would burden them self's with a 10 Lb ups worth 35.00 verses a 1500.00 computer. So as a backup file system it is really ideal for that. It can also be used as a remote drive on your web server. The uses are really limitless.
