My NAS runs OpenMediaVault. It happens that mine is on a Raspberry Pi,
but it's available (at zero cost) for many platforms. It's Linux under
the bonnet, and the file systems in my case are ext4 - I can't imagine
anyone would choose VFAT for use under Linux.
I looked up OpenMediaVault, and it kinda looks like it is an Ubuntu
spin optimized for media serving.
In my own case, I tend to just run a Fedora box, and let it serve media
with Samba. And for that I use an (older, hence cheap) desktop tower. I
don't quite see why one would buy a second box and allow that to only
run file service. But if you did, what is a good hardware package to run
it on?
