I love my ReadyNAS from Infrant Technologies. I've got an older model. It's a large shoebox form factor, takes four SATA drives (I've got four 400 GB in RAID 5). It has two USB ports which accepts external USB storage (and can be configured to automatically back-up to it), WiFi adapters (it also has an internal PCI slot for that as well), printers (it has a built-in print server) or UPS monitoring. You can actually configure this bad boy so that when you plug your digital camera into it it automatically copies all the images to a specific folder. The system runs a linux OS off of rewritable flash and can automatically update itself. Configuration is done via a pretty decent web interface. Lots and lots of options. The box natively supports most streaming media servers (DLNA, IO-Data, Squeezebox, etc) can act as a DHCP server, time server, etc. TONS of protection options. Data journaling, network recycle bin, built-in or networked access management, automated data versioning, etc. You can assign a drive as a hot spare and the system has intelligence that all but eliminates the chances for multiple failures. It sends me email alarms when it gets full, or warm or wants to talk. Just love this little box. Been running great for well over three years now. My only real problem is that it's full and I need another one.
