That looks almost perfect, but I would prefer the most recent Atom
(D510/525). Jetway offers some interesting boards as well. And the main
problem is finding a Mini-ITX case with space for the hard drives and a
regular-size optical drive.  And I am unsure whether a laptop-style PSU
would deliver enough power for this setup. I would definitely prefer a
fanless PSU and add one or two case fans instead. Or could I just buy an
ATX case instead?
