I picked one of these up from Costco. The price was good and the return policy gave me some breathing room. Turns out they run a version of linux and with newbie level hacking you’ve got a quick and dirty 1 TB box.
-setup a user with the web interface
-install this firmware to get ssh up + follow directions to have ssh on reboot
-turn off the mionet daemon
-profit!
You can now ssh to the user you created and su to root, no password.
Installing screen required a small patch, thanks to the gentoo people.
It’s fans blow too loud for the media room but I’m having a little fun.
