the power consumption and size of this device are what really shines, coupled with the stability, compatibility and ease of use that can only be provided by synology make this device a great little addition to any network. i replaced 2 windows boxes with this device and saved myself a ton of time
I spent $80.00 on a p4 system (Optiplex gx240) and another $100.00 on 1.5tb hdd and 200gig hdd (used) and install Windows Server 08... Hooked it up to my network.. messed with some settings.. And it works perfect. Saved me Some cash.. Lol whatever floats your boat i guess.
This is probably a dumb question (especially if you consider that I'm a Computer Science university student!), but what is the point of server OS'es in terms of home use? As a MSDNAA member I can get Windows Home Server 2008 for free, but I don't get what its needed for.
Hey, thanks for the heads up on this product. I plan on getting the DS209+II in about a month to handle the company's file serving needs until we can purchase our xserve!
I just replaced my ReadyNAS NV+ with a ReadyNAS Pro. I like the ReadyNAS but they are expensive. So look if you can get a good deal at eBay. Thats where I got my RNDP6350 for 855EUR instead of 1500EUR (the cheapest regular internet store).

That laptop sticker is ridiculous. I can not appreciate it. It's distracting and obscene. I can not take this seriously with that lame sticker. Get rid of it.
Chris, would you say this is way different than an external hard drive..or is it similiar, just compatible for more than one computer, or should i just say for a whole network?
Check out the D-Link DNS-323. Supports 2 3.5" sata hard drives with RAID1 and quick drive swapping without drive cages. I like knowing that if a drive crashes I don't loose any data. I've been using one for about 10 months and have no complaints. The DNS-323 also has a ton of features like web and media server stuff.
Nice !! i have a windows server enterprise but i want a nas storage because i thinkj it´s the ultimate to have in networks at home to storage music drivers moveis etc and that it reacheble for all computers and it have good performance to

The most important thing is your data DUDE!
Some of these NAS devices have been having lots of problems with rebuilding arrays.
Another one is CPU power. Don't expect too much from these devices in terms of horsepower.
Most of those features are pretty standard now.

It's small, and yet really powerful. Some of the features on there is not applicable in the Mac Pro, and is huge. Good choice, Chris.

He already has a Time Capsule. He has two videos on it: an unboxing and an installation vid.
The Time Capsule sits behind his Tix clocks btw.
