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.
