Forgive my ignorance of SteamOS?? I had to look it up as I wasn't at all familiar. If you'd done a show on it, it was before my time. I concurr on the optical drive, and especially since Sasha has posted that they use the PS4 Blu-ray for movies. If disc burning ever becomes a necessity, USB drives are dirt cheap. No need for that expense now. I can't wait for the show on OpenMediaVault!! My application will be for backup, as well. I'm thinking it'll be a great solution to combine with your rdiff backup strategy, with the added benefit of being able to air gap/remove USB drives, and then plug them in at backup time. That sort of removes the convenience of scheduled backups, but I'll sacrifice that for the security of air gapped data. ONWARD!!!
