The better NAS boxes are improved and the cheap NAS boxes are... Cheaper ?
And the market for general purpose computers in all sizes and hardware typeshas exploded ,some uses them as media servers or media centres or DIY NAS box or vortexbox . The value of a NAS is often how usefull you find the bundled functionality they support with the hardware , some of it can require a lot of work and knowledge to set up correctly . The form factor has some value to but here there are often computer devices these days in similar chassi . Take the HP microserver I use . It is perfect for a free NAS project or a vortexbox or WHS server , or as I use it with some Linux distro to simply run LMS ,MIP and Transmission . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98030 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
