Should be possible, though might be easier if you can find a home NAS
that supports debian (I've seen some over the years). Since it's busybox
based, why not spin up a virtual machine and try to get mapserver
compiled and running.
I personally have built a server with a Zotac atom based machine. The
drives can be inside or out depending on model and it's not any
different than any other x86_64 platform, so no strange drivers. A
little more to setup initially out of the box, but long term more flexible.
Enjoy,
Alex
