Seagate Central NAS (STCG3000100)

Currently, BestBuy on e-bay is selling this Seagate Central 3 TB NAS (STCG3000100) under US $80. Does anyone here know what kind of CPU/RAM/FLASH it has? I am tempted to get one unit. However, since I don't know what type of CPU and the amount of RAM/FLASH, I retreated.

Looking at the source code available from Seagate at http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/item/central-gpl-fw-master-dl/ it appears to be using the same kernel source as the Seagate Business NAS which indicates a Cavium Econa CNS3420 processor.

I see there is an entry of Cavium Networks Econa CNS3xxx in the make menuconfig of OpenWRT. So far, Default is the only entry in the Target Profile. It will be great if this platform is fully supported by OpenWRT.

@habibie - are you looking to put Debian on there or OpenWRT ?

Reason I ask is that this is a Debian forum, OpenWRT have their own forums :)

If you're looking to put Debian on there, I believe the question has already been asked here, which might yield an answer. I don't know the thread but try this in Google - "doozan seagate business storage" ... you should find the thread there ...
