Question: What do you think about the new SD NAS device?
    
- Awesome! Where can I get one?
- Nice. I'll put that on my wish list.
- Not for me, but it sure is pretty.
- Lame idea. Have the SD folks lost their minds?

I'm still deciding between getting ReadyNAS and building my own full
blown RAID server, the latter will be substantially more expensive, but
more versatile either.

The major cons of ReadyNAS I see are:
- it's OK for music, but a way too slow for a file server. Too little
computing power and PCI based design don't allow to get any close to
Gigabit capabilities. And you want it if you realize potential of
having a dedicated file server at home.
- limited functionality comparing to PC
- no SATAII support
- it's very noisy

Pro's are obvious - it's cheap, and ready to use right out of the box
