Reviews

  • Seagate BlackArmor NAS 440

    Although Seagate BlackArmor is difficult to use for networking novices, it is a good choice for small business and advanced users.

  • D-Link Xtreme N Storage Router DIR-685

    The D-Link Xtreme N Storage Router DIR-685 is a very good single-band Wireless-N router; however, its extra features hardly justify the price.

  • Promise SmartStor NS4600

    The SmartStor NS4600 ticks the required feature boxes for being a NAS, but is in dire need of an interface overhaul and some features simply don't work.

  • Thecus N7700

    The N7700 is one heck of a NAS box if you need something to take seven drives and have nowhere to put a rack mount unit.

    The QNAP TS-509 Pro comes highly recommended — it's a flexible NAS with an interface that's gaining usability as time goes on.

  • Synology DS209

    The Synology DS209 is an excellent little unit, with a more complex than necessary set up routine. Still for those looking for a highly featured, high performing NAS with an easy to use and flashy menu, it's certainly a compelling choice.

  • Netgear ReadyNAS Pro

    With the ReadyNAS Pro, Netgear has proven it's still king of the hill. However, some interface quirks, inelegant recovery from catastrophic volume failure, and poor volume, user and share management may put some users off.

  • Iomega Home Media Network Drive (1TB)

    The Iomega Home Media Network Drive, a single-volume NAS server, is easy to set up and use for even the most novice user; however, its lack of advanced features might lessen its appeal to savvy users.
