I am looking to upgrade my Raid array at home which currently rund on a 
pair of IDE disks on solaris (raided).

I am thinking that there is a simpler (and cheeper) way to have storage 
than a standard PC does anybody have any suggestions or recomendations?

I am thinking along the lines of the raid version of the WD My Book® 
World Edition™ II (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=340)

My requirements would be

RAIDed.
Ethertnet connection with SMB accessability.
Hackable to the extent that it runs something like linux and you can get 
at it.
User servicable

In addition advantages would be
Wireless
DHCPD server.
