Cheers Sam, that looks good but it would be good to have a system that's wireless if poss. Like the idea of it being ultra quick but we both access the hard drives regularly and it'd be a pain to have to plug a cable in each time. We deal with a lot of audio files and there's stuff going backwards and forwards to the hard discs regularly. Don't suppose there is a wireless version? Just a bit of a pain to have to get up and plug it in each time.
