I have an NV+ for very similar purposes at home and it seems to do a perfect job for me. Plus it is plugged into the UPS in the loft, so in the event of a power failure it will shutdown cleanly when the UPS has dropped to x% of capacity. As that UPS is also powering a router and a switch it means I get emails at work if there are power issues at home :thumbs up:

I have an old netgear NV+, it been pretty good to me decent speed and features, I stream movies from it and store pics/music etc plus use it as a backup target. I was looking to replace it with either a Synology or a Qnap, they seem to be the current leaders for mid-level NAS boxes. Depends on how much you want to spend for features it can get costly 300+ range. I don't know how good they are but LG just put out some dual HD boxes with either a CD or BD drive to save your data externally.

Network World just did an article on NAS under a grand. http://www.networkworld.com/slideshows/2010/120610-network-attached-stor age-test.html I just bought a Qnap 459pro and put in 4 1tb WD drives. Works great. dave From: Jim Slattery [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, December 22, 2010 6:57 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: OT: Home RAID enclosure recommendations? I recently started taking a lot of photos and videos, and I'm realizing that my current storage solution at home isn't going to cut it very soon. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good price/performance RAID enclosure (or populated solution) for home use? I'd like to have 3-4TB available if possible. Thanks, and Happy Holidays!
