I have a 1GB Terastation connected to a SlimServer on an old EPIA Eden based machine. I want the later as I use AlienBBC an awful lot. The Terastation has been fine for me so far, speed is more than adequate. - it can happily stream to Slim server, Twonky server (for a netgear MP101) and video to a machine with no dropouts.
The Pro looks better in a couple of respects - 1 it is easier to swap disks - they are caddy's whereas the non pro is a complete dismantle. The Pro also works with ADS whereas the non pro does not. Mac connectivity is fine as it is a standard SMB connection.. I do backup my data onto an external USB HDD. I have seen a massive difference in performance in backing up between choosing EXT3 and FAT. You can read the former natively under OSX, but under windows you will need an additional driver. -- poyntzj ------------------------------------------------------------------------ poyntzj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2628 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23021 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
