Ok Deletions done. Now my 2 cents.

Snap 2200 are great small compact units. I have one and still use it daily.

They can act as FTP servers and HTTP (web), but is limited to only html code and JVM. The FTP access is limited to SAMBA v2 limititions. But you have very limited ram on the 2200. The 2000 can be upgraded to greater ram capacity, which helps if you have a lot of users.

The Guardian units are more robust and twice the cost and Noisy (rack mount units). Just keep in mind that Adaptec has stopped development on the SnapOS. So Vista support is very limited. There is a thread that address the SnapOS and Vista issues, work arounds.
