目前BitTorrent Sync已经可以在Windows, Mac and Linux等平台下工作，特别是Linux平台不但支持i386和x86_64，还支持ARM，PowerPC，这样很多网络存储设备上也可以使用bitTorrent Sync了。
将来还会开发智能手机上运行的版本，如苹果IOS，Android等。

HOWTO : Home made NAS server with Ubuntu 8.04.1 [HOWTO] 用Ubuntu 8.04.1搭建NAS服务器
There are many NAS for home users in the market, such as Synology, Qnap, LinkStation and etc. They are not in good performance and not cheap in price. However, they are good in less power consumption. It is because I owned not only one brand of such products at home now. 现在市场上有很多家用NAS产品，例如：Synology, Qnap, LinkStation等。它们性能并不好，而且价格不便宜。不过，在低能耗方面做得较好，因此，我家里有不止1个品牌的这类产品。
Recently, I bought a VIA PC-1 PC2500E motherboard, which has VIA C7-D 1.5GHz CPU on board. It is cheap in price and use less power too. The maximum amount of RAM is 2 GB. 最近，我买了1块VIA PC-1 PC2500E主板，板上带有VIA C7-D 1.5GHz CPU。价格便宜，也节能。最大可装2G内存。
Testing it with Ubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop version for a while, I am very satisfied with the performance of the CPU, although it is not quite fast indeed. I decided to build a home made NAS server with remote BitTorrent function. 用Ubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop测试一段时间，虽然不是足够快，我还是对CPU的性能相当满意。我决定在家组装NAS服务器，并带有远程BT功能。
