Running a torrent platform.

Ever heard of a kuro box? From what I hear they use very little electricity to run, and their perfect if you're going to be downloading/uploading a bunch of stuff. The only problem? You need to really familar with Linux. Well...that leaves me out. I've no problems running Linux, it's just that I prefer a GUI to work with, so having to type a bunch of stuff out isn't something I want to do. In other words, I want to be able to click a bunch of stuff, save the settings, turn off the computer, and still have the torrents downloading/uploading.

I've done some looking and I think LinkStation may be a better alternative. Also, if I sound like I don't know a lot of stuff of what I'm talking about, that's because I don't. I don't mind doing some learning; I just want it to be simple enough to where I know what it is I'm doing.

My point exactly. A 17 watt NAS is more efficient than a 1,200 watt power supply running 24/7 to upload/download.  The only question is what kind of NAS should I get? I think LinkStation may be a good start, but I've actually heard of myka, and a few others are also good. The problem is with some devices if your not careful, torrenting it via laptop is faster than the NAS, plus not all of them will have a Linux kernel, so being picky is essential. Any suggestions?
