How I Set Up My Home Network – NAS and Raspberry Pi

Just adding that the RasPi power supply is a standard micro-USB so if you happen to have one already (old phone or tablet charger?) and a spare SD card (old camera?) then you don't even need to pick those up.

Heck even the case isn't strictly necessary. I've got a similar setup at home and for quite a while mine was hanging off the back of my TV on a short HDMI cable.

While the later model B's are reasonably good with most chargers, you still want to make sure the charger is capable of at least 700mA.

If anyone hesitate you HAVE TO buy the B model! Much more power for so little money.

My pi shipped with a plastic, semi-transparent box, if you don't mind the pink colour, you can turn it into a makeshift case.
