What's Hot

Free, open source

What's Not

Installation more complicated than Windows Home Server

The Final Word

We're impressed with FreeNAS. Windows Home Server has more media-friendly capabilities such as Xbox 360 connectivity, but if you are looking to set up a basic NAS box using your existing hardware, for free, FreeNAS is well worth a spin.
