They offered this deal when iOS 5.0 released and I signed up for it. Haven't really uploaded anything to it but I know that it'll be there if/should I ever need to.

Superbiiz has the 2TB Samsung Spinpoint F4 for $75, $65 after using coupon code LION2510 at checkout. http://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?name=HD-HD204UI&c=CJ

haha, sorry mom. Server can't support access to outside world just yet, give it a few years!

I ment opening it up to over the internet, I don't plan on doing it but was just curious if it was possible. That was one of many things I told my family: not possible, doing so invites other people to snoop through it, yada yada yada. Just curious if it was possible or not.

I've had a lot of family members ask me if it was possible for them to access my unRAID and watch movies or download stuff from it. At first I just blew them off and said NO, but then my mom asked about doing it to get pictures of my daughter and now I'm a little curious if it is possible or not. Maybe just give them READ only privileges (wouldn't want someone accidentally deleteing something)?

A friend of mine did that as well to his Mini 9. I have a Mini 10 that Im about to get rid of. I considered installing OS X on it, but it has an Intel WWAN card in it, and alas, no drivers for OS X. Why you getting rid of it? Its just time for an upgrade for me. You interested in buying it? Haha, I would be if I had some extra cash to send your way!

I have a Dell Vostro (the business version of the mini9) notebook with OSX loaded on it. Install was pretty easy following an old lifehacker guide. Threw a Apple sticker over the Dell badge to finish it off. The sticker seems to get the most attention though, people always ask about it when I pull it out at an airport.

Same here, it plays everything I've thrown at it. I spend more time watching this than cable tv. I also have PLEX on a Mac in another room but it hasn't gotten much love since I connected the Zbox to the living room tv.

I'm still amazed at the prices and how they keep falling! Just a few months ago I remember these drives being around the $120 mark and being stoked when they would go on sale for $100, now the regular price is $84. Guess that means I'll have all my under 2tb drives replaced sooner than I ever expected!

Just saw this post over at Plex... http://elan.plexapp.com/2011/05/14/the-plex-penguin-friendly-media-server/ Looks like Plex is ready for Linux and unRAID!

Any work with a Mac for TV Shows? I've been using Messy Media Manager for my movies.

I have OpenELEC running on a Zbox and I love it! Still haven't figured out how to get the "click click" menu sound to work but I'm ok without it. Not a real deal breaker. Even had a thread running in the OpenELEC forums but nothing seemed to help Very supportive though if you ever run into any problems. And I was very surprised at how easy it was to set up, it's gotten even easier the last time I did it! Now it's down to 1 thumb drive and really only takes a few mins. Someone else on the forums here pointed me to OpenELEC and I couldn't be happier!

Just saw Motorola is planning on putting out a XBMC remote! Kinda like the Boxee remote, with a keyboard on the backside. No word if it's backlit or not. I know a lot of you have been using a Harmony universal but I haven't had much luck with mine (although I haven't REALLY tried). I did a quick program of it and it seems "sluggish" compared to the cheap MCE remote. Now I just use the MCE remote but I do keep a keyboard near the TV just in case. This looks like it would eliminate the need for it....But for $60 it better be backlit! http://www.tested.com/news/motorola-made-xbmc-remote-now-available-for-presale/2118/

ooooooh! can we use this with any current deals? any 2tb drives on sale? hmmmmmm
