It has to be said that I had Aurora 1.0 running flawlessly on my SS20
(SMP) for a looong time. IIRC, there were some issues with Samba in the
early days, but they were solved along the way. Unfortunately I had a
HDD failure in the SS20 (after a power outage) and that combined with
having a U1 handed to me resulted in a SS20 that is sitting cold and
quiet on a shelf these days.
It depends on what you want to use the SS20 for. Maybe Aurora 1.0 is
just what you need..?
