In my search for a WHS(2 years ago) my most important USP were:
- Noice(fanless)
- Idle power consumption
I then found Tranquil and bought a T2 series.
With 2 build in 1Tb disks and 2GB Ram it uses only 44Watts and is absolutely silent.
The disadvantage is that it can only hold 2 build in disks.
It does have an eSata port for expantion or backup.
Expanding the internal Sata ports with a PCI adapter is useless, because the motherboard has only (slow)PCI slots and no PCIexpress.

Thanks for the mention. I’m glad you found the purchasing guide useful. Stay tuned, I will continue this series with builiding your own WHS and eventually how to setup, manage, and extend the WHS. Again, thanks for the mention, great blog!
