FreeNAS is a Linux based operating system that turns old and apparently useless computers into Network Attached Storage - kind of like a file server.
The FreeNas people say...
"FreeNAS™ is an Open Source Storage Platform based on FreeBSD and supports sharing across Windows, Apple, and UNIX-like systems. FreeNAS™ 8 includes ZFS, which supports high storage capacities and integrates file systems and volume management into a single piece of software."
It is a place to put you files people...backups, shared files and so on.
If you've got an old computer laying around doing nothing and you feel like having a play, give FreeNAS a go.
