A new alternative to a NAS

[comptr]

Here is a recommendation it allows you to send files over the network to the HD that is connected to it plus you can access those files over the internet. : http://www.pogoplug.com/

I prefer Tonido. I currently have Tonido installed on my sheevaplug... or you can buy a tonidoplug. The advantage of going w/ a sheevaplug over a pogoplug is that you can customize it and add a variety of options.

New Review

Just saw the Engadget review for the iConnect. Looks interesting to say the least.

Mind you 'proper' NAS drive's are getting cheaper and cheaper

you can get this for £300.00 or so.

Must admit I really love my NAS just stick everything on it dont worry about compressing etc and share stream to everything including desktops laptops ps3 xboxs etc

With Raid 5 and a hotspare gives a decent level of protection should a disk fail.
