Wireless NAS?

[575]

I'm looking for a class of device which may no longer exist. A NAS box with wireless capabilities. I want to place the NAS box into a room that is diffcult to cable and into a snug and poorly ventilated location that precludes a converted PC.

I know that wireless will not approach wired for throughput- this isn't a problem.

My requirements:
- Wireless built in (or easily added via a USB adaptor)
- 2 drive bays
- RAID 1
- Ability to spin down disks after inactivity

Does anything like this exist? The Thecus N299 is the closest I have been able to find, but the wireless expansion capability is limited to some very hard to find adaptors.

Thanks.

Another option is to get a NAS with a 10/100/1000 port and purchase a router such as a WRT54GL or something similar, run DDWRT on the router and use it as a client bridge. May be easier and cheaper to use this solution. Router is roughly $50 at Newegg.

Yep, that sounds like a more likely solution. Thanks.
