I've used AVG, Avast and Eset, I find the pay ones always seem to hog resources.
Currently I am using http://www.superantispyware.com/, and http://www.malwarebytes.org/, with Avast.
I am pleased with all.
Any Windows Home Server will do the trick for storage, automatic backups, file/printer hosting.
I like the Acer boxes. There are plenty of off lease PCs, that will handle the workload of WHS. Also you'll have the option of expansion, Gigabit card, RAID controller, USB card etc.
I will be going the WHS PC route.
Just remember, get a UPS!!
As for TV/media, for standalone players, the Patriot box supports a ton of extensions, the chipset will handle 1080 and MKVs. I am not a fan of the Asus or WD standalone units. Oh and make sure to get a unit that can be networked.
