This might not have enough grunt for your purpose but the HP microserver n54l has ECC ram. I got one recently for low-use file serving etc. Works well.

Keep an eye out for these:

They often have cashback deals that make it a really good deal for a low-power server.

I built my own nas a few year ago using an HP Microserver thats similiar to this one. If you wait long enough you can usually find a decent deal (I think I paid $250 for mine with a 250GB hard drive and 4GB of RAM).

I loaded Freenas on it, which install to a USb flash drive you plug directly into the motherboard. (install is easy, you can either burn a CD with the install ISo or make a bootable USB flash drive to install it from).

The Microserver has space for 4 drives. I have 3 x 3TB drive's running in a RAIDz1 giving me just about 6TB of useable storage.

My all in cost was about $650ish, including the hard drives. It works fantastic and was significantly cheaper than going with a Buffalo type unit.

I know this is heresy to say in /r/buildapc, but I built three miniITX systems on my own, and for the fourth one, I just used a HP microserver N54L. One of the best decisions. Very quiet, reliable, server-grade everything, uses ECC RAM, etc etc. For a small system like this, there's not much difference in building from scratch and modifying a system anyway.

I got mine for a little over €180 with 4GB RAM included, so you would need to shop around (Amazon price is much too high).

All your purposes could be served by installing FreeNAS on it (needs 8GB RAM, though).

Actually, that said...

If you go with the older model you can put an adapter in the 5.25in bay and a SATA controller in the PCIe slot and get 8 drives instead of 4, which is a much nicer sized ZFS pool.

I was going to recommend a HP Proliant N54L as they're insanely cheap here in Japan.... (I bought mine for around $140) and load on FreeNAS.

Apparently they're not so cheap in the US though.....
