This device definitely looks as if it will hack. The firmware contains
a ramdisk image which is used to prep the hard drive. This has telnet
disabled and the root password is complex. However one could either
add an account in the ramdisk before intialisation, or mount the
drive on a Linux PC after initialisation and edit the files.

The firware load image has checksums included. This might make it
difficult to modify the ramdisk, if they are checked as part of lhe
load sequence.

However this device looks VERY promising.
