Linux-powered NAS appliance

system?
I'm looking for something that has up to 4 SATA drives (RAID5) with
capacity of a few TB.
My basic requirements are NFS file shares and DLNA server, but would
like to be able to add things like SlimServer and run backup scripts to
IDrive cloud.

Is hardware RAID a requirement?
Considered something like an Intel NUC with an external drive enclosure (which takes i3 to i7 iirc)?
There are also great AMD mobo/CPU offers that could be paired with a hardware RAID card.
If you can get a 4 bay internal or external you can boot the primary from USB or flash...

I used this HP ProLiant micro server to build home storage with ZFS/Solaris OS 11 Express. Rock solid, but not sure if it can run application you need.

Nice call. Personally for SAN/NAS I use BSD or Solaris.

Also, I am not really looking for a "roll-your-own" solution, but a
commercial appliance (like the Drobo footprint), that can be modified.

You dont have to totally roll your own. Open-e has a nice Linux offering with a free edition that still provides NAS and SAN on your hardware but is a storage distribution.
I've installed/used them on commodity and major hardware.

NAS.
At least I think I remember hearing that.
I'll check the forums. Thanks.
