RE: Recommended gigabit NAS box?



I've been impressed with the Synology boxes, got a DS207 and a friend
has
one of the 5 drive versions (can't remember which).

Have done some streaming, and use it for regular large-volume backups from
clients with good throughput.

Firmware is feature-rich, but also good at the basics!

or go for a separate gigabit NAS box. Maybe only a couple of 2TB drives in
RAID 0.
