    If you are looking for a "ready-to-go" NAS appliance, then I
    recommend to look for Synology products.
    Their DS value and DS plus series are based on relatively good
    hardware and have stable software/firmware with too many features
    and options.
    2-4 bay variants with 1Gb Ethernet ports are very inexpensive and
    IMO perfect for SOHO.
    
    That is if you are not on an adventure to build your own NAS, of
    course. :)
    And if you are, then prices, for anything not ATX, with small
    form-factors and custom cases, would be too high.
