I used to just run FTP sw on my server so I had off site access to
data I might need in the field. Not as cool as this thing but did the
job for me. Then came thumb drives big enough to bring everything with ya. :-D
only clouds I like is the ones I used to fall thru >:-}

I bought one of these last year on impulse, at a Amazon sale. I
think it is a 2 and I paid 45 bucks for it. You plug it into your
network, plug USB2 drives into it, mine has two ports, and you can
access them from your Lan or a web browser by logging into their
site. It is like the cloud but it isn't actually in the cloud, it's
in your house. I don't use it very often but it does what it is suppose to do.

Anyone know about this device? Seems like a cool way to have your
own online storage without using anyone else's hardware (other than
internet connections). I have fast up/down links at work, so I
could put one of these there and have complete control over why
share. It sounds like a cool thing. They are selling it to people
who use the cloud for $60, while online it costs $100.
