care to elaborate how you pulled off 2TB/RAID1 for under $300? I'm undertaking a similar project soon and am looking for advice

I got a couple of 2TB WD Greens for $85 apiece and a ZyXEL NSA221 two-bay NAS (some ARM chip running what I think is Debian but I've never bothered to look) for $120. I think that one's discontinued now, though.

Thanks for the response; what is your take on replace the ZyXEL with a RaspPi?

No idea. I assume it'd work, but how will you connect the drives?
