OpenBrick classic can have a 2.5" internal disk, and is then a wonderful 300 MHz PC - Linux, *BSD, Windows, etc. OpenBrick-NG only has the capability to have USB based disks - this works also well with Linux - see umigumi on their website for how to install. Be warned: *BSD still have troubles with USB 2.0. I drilled some holes in the lid and mounted a 2.5" disk inside in mine. There are two IDE interfaces, one with an older 3.5" disk cable and the other with the smaller 2.5" disk cable. You won't fit a 3.5" disk inside. I worry about the extra heat generated. My preference is clearly NetBSD and USB - but that is not yet reliable running on USB 2.0 (and USB 1.1 is just too slow).
