The Soekris, AFAIK, is an embedded platform.
It doesn't surprise me the least that it's not good at I/O.
That's the reason why I suggested the HP.
At least, it does decent I/O, if you want to believe reports.

I would really also recommend to separate the router and fileserver-functio=
nality.
AFAIK, the N40L supports Wake-on-LAN (and pfSense does, too), so you should=
 be able to wake it up even without getting up from the couch ;-)

I never really got warm with the Soekris-stuff - but then, I'm in Switzerla=
nd and PC-Engines was always very quick with shipping ;-)
