I just started playing with FreeNAS (freenas.org) - it looks nice, and it 
supports SMB, FTP, AFP, and other choices. Can be installed on a USB key (if 
your machine can boot off the USB ;^) and support software or hardware 
RAID... All you need is a PC, one or more drives, and a few minutes to 
configure it. A CD-ROM drive is needed for install though...
