I have 3 of these.

Two I use as frontends only with a Core 2 backend.

The other I have set up for my folks which is be/fe solution. This is the one
you are interested in. I have a 500GB disk and also have a dual DVB-T usb
tuner attached. My folks use it almost every night. It is quiet in the TV 
cabinet and works well with 2GB ram.

Cheers,
Paul
