I did this on a similar hardware (Atom d525 + 4G + 100M LAN + 1 SATA2 drive) a few weeks ago with OpenBSD AMD64 snapshot, but now I switched to Ubuntu due to file copy performance issue. I can get around 10MB/s on OpenBSD, but around 20MB/s with Ubuntu on the same hardware.
One major difference here: my NAS is not for disaster, it's simply for file sharing. All data is back'ed up somewhere else. It's also my wireless AP, btw. I'll be glad to know if there is any tips/advices to get better file copy speed on a OpenBSD NAS.
