[OCLUG-Tech] Low Powered server

All:

Some years ago, this forum was very helpful in finding me a low power
server solution for my home network.  I ended up buying a Koolu (PC ION
603) box with 512 Meg running on an AMD Geode processor.  This machine is
still kicking and since that time I've added a USB hub and the data traffic
to the attached drives has only grown.

I am once again looking for a similar solution.  My new requirements are:

   1. < 10 watts power consumption
   2. GigE
   3. USB3
   4. Sata3 (optional)
   5. > 1G Memory

I need something to run network data a bit faster than my current
Koolu/USB2 Drive scheme.

Ideas I've seen so far have been:
cubox <http://cubox-i.com/products/>
utilite <http://utilite-computer.com/web/utilite-models>
minnowboard max <http://www.minnowboard.org/meet-minnowboard-max/> (my
current favorite with Intel chipset)

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

As always, I've enjoyed the posts.

Peter
