Hey, thx for sharing your thoughts.

Right now I have a seagate extreme 1 tb, but  I do not like the fact that you cannot
use it via USB and eSata simultaniously. I need to use this drive with my laptop via
eSata and so I can not use it for the plug, at least not fulltime.

That's why I want to buy a new one, but maybe I'll get a seagate again

I never tried external enclosures... Would you prefer them over a usual external drive
for my intended purpose?

Hi,

I ordered a plug which I want to use as a 24/7 (web)server and I want to attach a USB drive,
so I can access my files from anywhere. I want to buy a new USB drive for this purpose, because
I need my other one for other things .

So I'd like to ask which USB drives you would recommend for that purpose. It should not use too
much power, not get too hot, and it should be robust enough for 24/7 usage.

Any thoughts on that? Which drives would/do you use?

Hi,

did someone try to use a plug as a game server yet?

I would like to run a Q3 server when I get mine, does anyone think that could be possible?
Maybe with qemu, but then Q3 is open source so I might be able to port it..? I'll definitely try
but I would like to know if somebody already tried to use a plug as a game server (especially
interested in CPU load).

Hi,

have you checked CPU by now? My plug's not shipped yet, but I also want to run a voiceserver. Hope it runs smooth with more than 4 clients (about 8 or so). Also, what quality did you use for audio bitrate? Thx in advance.

bye
