You could always get one of these "plug computers" and attach a large 
external USB drive to it. It only draws 5w of power and runs ubuntu so 
you could easily setup your own samba and nfs shares, as well as run 
some kind of media server applications.

I ordered the $99 "dev kit" at 
http://www.marvell.com/products/embedded_processors/developer/kirkwood/sheevaplug.jsp
I got an email Wed saying it was shipped. Once I get it I will run it 
through some paces and post my findings.
