The second one I splurged and went all 1TB SSD. Made a HUGE difference in my lab. I can now run over 20 VMs concurrently. With spinning disks, the other NAS died at 5 VMs and was basically unusable at 4.

Been very popular in the past with our SMB sized customers. Lately some of my team/engineers have noticed various problems/crashes with the Netgear units so I’m curious what other options out there people have had good success with. These are situations where a customer doesn’t want to spend a lot of money of disk storage, so enterprise class storage is completely out. Think along the lines of, 4 or 8 disks, SATA, no SAN connectivity, just NAS… Thoughts? Jesse Rink Source One Technology, Inc. HP Partner 262 993 2231 Website |Blog |LinkedIn |Twitter
