Hello,
I am looking to replace my existing PC (running ubuntu) with a more complete NAS solution that I do not have to fiddle with all the time.
Currently, I am looking at..
QNAP TS-419PII - 4-BAY iSCSI NAS HOT-SWAPPABLE Marvell 2.0GHZ CPU 512MB Ddrii RAM Cloud Ready
http://ncix.com/products/?sku=64220&vpn=TS-419PII&manufacture=QNAP Systems Inc.
Synology Disk Station DS411 4-BAY SATA NAS RAID Server RAID 0/1/5/6/10 JBOD Black
http://ncix.com/products/?sku=64026&vpn=DS411&manufacture=Synology Inc.
Or any of the Netgear NAS models? With a budget of about $400.
Looking for something that I can put 4 disks in (2x4TB), and also use the NAS (iscsi) for playing around with VMWare ESXi. Streaming (videos/audio), remote control (iphone?), FTP, HTTP, Share (Samba), etc.
Any proud owners want to give me some ups/downs with their units?
I did setup a QNAP last month (2-bay version) for a friend's business, was extremely happy with it but I am not convinced as there are other big players in the NAS category.
Thanks
