Home communications specialist D-Link worked with Intel to build an innovative “Central Home Drive” (CHD) that leverages embedded Linux and Universal Plug-n-Play (UPnP) technology to create a network-attached repository for shared multimedia files in the home that works out of the box in heterogeneous… networks.

The device boots MontaVista Linux off 8MB of Compact-Flash, stores files on an upgradable 20GB laptop-sized drive, and will ship mid-October 2003 with an MSRP of $249.99.

Our complete Device Profile has all the technical details, along with a few cool photos.
