FreeNAS on an Apple Cube possible?

[tonne]

Hey folks!
I have a nearly 10 Years old Apple Cube (450 MHz PowerPC Processor G4) wich I would like to turn into a perfekt NAS system, cause it has NO vents and ist total quiet therefore. Is it possible to install FreeNAS on it? Maybe even with a RAID1 or at least a JBOD configuration? Looking forward to any suggestions on this project.
Thx,
tonne

Hi tonne,

I'm sorry to report that since the cube is PPC based, Freenas will not run on it.

Hey Will,
thx 4 your quick respond although this is no good news 4 me. Anyway, so I'll silence down my other old Pentium Pro machine and give that one a try. By the way: How many HDDs do I need for setting up a RAID 1 system? (1 HDD for FreeNAS and 2 for the RAID?)

It is recommended to install freeNAS on a USB drive, then 2 drives for your mirror should get you going.
