New Logo

You might have noticed that they have got ourselves a nice, shiny, great looking new Logo!

Huge thanks to Julien Dutertre for the design, I’m sure we all agree it’s excellent.

Orders

It seems that the two suppliers (RS and Farnell) have struggled with traffic this morning! Farnell is still struggling now, although if your patient, and have a decent F5 key then you can still pre-order yours with them, and there’s always RS on Friday if your lucky.

Either way, let us know if you’ve got one coming and what your looking forward to using it for…. besides a NAS.

Oh and they have something exciting to announce as well soon, a sister site that will extend the functionality of NasBerryPi using, you guessed it, another RaspberryPi.

The other great news announced is that the Version A product will get a RAM bump as well, so it too get’s 256mb of Ram up from the 128Mb that it was originally having.

Partners

RaspberryPi have announced that two partners, RS and Farnell will sell the hardware.

Seems that neither of the company’s realised the demand they would get, and the sites are basically down.

Direct(ish) links are RS and Farnell and orders are limited to 1pp.

The time is set

06:00 tomorrow morning seems to be the time to get you name down for a RasberryPi.

I would recommend being up early, and being ready to press F5 a fair bit.

Oh before you go and ask questions on the post, instead rather pop to the FAQ and Wiki

Welcome

Hello and welcome the informational website of NasBerryPi. Their team aim to take the humble RasBerryPi and make it into a powerful and versatile home NAS unit. That’s where they are starting anyhow.

However with the power and flexibility of a proper computer running all this, they can do oh so much more. They will be adding abilities for media, downloading and more. But for now, let’s get the NAS stuff working.
