Once I get some stuff sold off, I think my first purchase is going to be stuff for a file server.  Not only am I running out of space on my own computer, but I fear for the health of my drives, considering how old and well-used they are.  This way I can keep work stuff, compositions, music, and so on nice and safe :3

Case: got it already, taken from Ryan c.c  Thermaltake XaserIII (pronounced: [ˈoʊvə˞ˌkɪl]).  Ah well.  The reason I'm using it is that it has seven fucking fans, most of which hook into the PSU fairly directly, which seems like a safe bet to me.  Gamer's case.  Effin' huge.

Setup: Debian Etch 64 (or whatever is newest) on the 40GB drive running all sorts of network daemons (Samba, Apache, SSHd, etc.) bridging network to wired/wireless router.  /home mounted on RAID-1 array (pure mirroring, very safe) of the two 500GB disks.  This means 500GB total.  I can add another RAID-1 array with another couple of hyoooge disks at some later point if I need (if I get really into soundtrack stuff, or if I have lots of samples, or if I become independently wealthy).
