Well, I see it for 320. Then you need to ad= d a SSD, and a decent network card, and I suppose it could be made to work.= Awful big, tho, in an era where I can get 1/2TB on an 2.5 inch SSD.

What I'd wanted was closer to a dreamplug - 160 bucks, two network = ports, but with an internal SSD. bonus points if it fit into a 1U rack and = ate as little power as possible.

Principal use case here is to be a = "network monitor" with enough oomph to run stuff like cacti/mrtg/= snmp tools, as well as do captures off of a mirrored switch port.

I know this is= no where near an embedded device but I just got one of these
on sale (= new model out) for $220 and I think it's the most useful all-round
cheap server box I've ever seen. Some people have it running 16 GB ram= and
I've got mine booting off an SSD via external eSATA. Very well= built with 2
x half height PCI slots (4 x eth port card?). Only missin= g USB3 ports and
hot-swap drive space. And, very quiet with just an SSD.

I'd be very interested to know how fast it could do packet hea= der captures.

Line rate (gigE) would be good.

Does it do BQL= ? (what is the onboard ethernet chips)
