Been planning to make some space for just that on one of our servers.

Seems 'of value' to keep it away from these lists - hardware
attract the worst sort of belligerance. <g>

All I will have for starters is a few System Boards, and a lot of
storage devicecontrollers - SCSI, PATA, SATA, USB
 - storage is my interest.  (pair of new 200 GB SATA bought
today for the express purpose of trials with DFLY).

As our servers are headless, nothing (from me) on video.

Happy to make space for those who do chase that stuff

Suggestion / Draft layout welcome.  Zope/Plone or
Nuxeo for ease of edit / contribution.

Yes - Z/P, Z/N is overkill, but one more 'portal' among
many is way less work than some new toolset we don't
otherwise use here.
