I have been wanting to do something similar.  I want small, quiet, low power and always ON and on my LAN.  I had been wondering if anyone had tried putting FreeNAS:

I could tell you about FreeNAS. It's really excellent. I've got version 0.7.2 running with no problems. It comes with a bittorrent client (and web interface for it), software RAID support, optional encryption, and support for several different protocols. I don't know anything about the sheevaplug, but I imagine that it would run fine on the device. I've got it running on my Atom just fine. Load averages 0.09, 0.09, 0.03 with several services running, and bittorrent seeding at 100 KiB/s.
on a SheevaPlug:

(or something similar) with an external USB or esata drive
