I just paid $249 for a 1TB RAID NAS. Hah to catastrophic hard drive failure, and HAH to security issues with storing data online. Oh, and incidentally, YAY to shared media (awesome jukebox now available to all on my network). And yay to shared USB devices like printers, too. Until I quit reading stories about hacked this server and stole that data and the like, I'd rather keep my files in-house. And it's a one-time fee, not an annual subscription (so what happens if you don't renew? Or if the company you're storing with goes belly-up?). Just poking a stick at things (as usual?)
