Hello everyone. I'm planning to buy a piece of hardware that will enable me to do the following:
1) Configure data encryption inside it (something like encrypted LVM via NAS if possible; I do not have a lot of knowledge about NAS Storages yet).
2) Run a script that rsyncs 2 different machines. Script file will be held inside both machines and process will be cronned Daily on my work computer (that's why the encryption and paranoia about secure data storage). The other computer is used for studying and there is no need for data to be encrypted. It might be based (or be an almost exact copy) of vencatt's script.
3) I have a headless lappy (Lenovo G450 with broken monitor) that I could use for this purpose as well. I also have a Raspberry Pi Revision B (512 MB Ram, 700 Mhz ARM dual core and I could attach to it a USB HDD and have a storage / media server (which was the main purpose of the embedded board in the first place, just never had the time to read and implement it). Feel free to write on this related thread any suggestions.
I'd like to receive suggestions on model / brands. If you have done some research it is welcomed as well, along with personal usage experiences. In case it needs to be clarified, I do not use Windows on any computer. Economic pieces of hardware are preferred, and it doesn't matter if manufacturer does not ship into my country. I know some hardware retailers that are very competent and might be able to get the one you recommend the most.
Thanks in advanced.
