By network box, do you mean something like a NAS?

I've actually played with the idea of putting BackupPC directly onto an Iomega ix4-200d.  The Iomega boxes are very easy to SSH into with full root access to the Linux system.  The only thing that has stopped me is that I currently use SATA trays/mobile racks for archives.  I could use USB drives on the Iomega, but it kinda undoes the all-enclosed nature of the backup server if I have to dangle a USB drive off of it...  :(
