Wow, cool. Looks like the later ones are mipsel? I've already got a
Cobale Qube2 so I can build pkgsrc stuff on that thing... I've been
wanting to use the Qube for some kind of a storage device but it's got
some throughput issues with NetBSD so I haven't done it. This
Linkstation might just be the ticket...
Any other viable network storage devices like this for NetBSD that
anyone is aware of?
