Storage companies are betting a technology once reserved for businesses will appeal to consumers dealing with large files shared by multiple PCs and a need for data protection.
The Iomega StorCenter ix2 is a two-drive NAS device that offers Bluetooth support but no remote access via the web.
Network attached storage appliances come in all shapes and sizes: in this review roundup we look at what five of the leading vendors have to offer the small to medium-sized business.
The StorCenter Pro NAS 450r is a generously-specified appliance running Windows Storage Server 2003. While it scores on performance, it's pricey and lacks capacity.
Apple's new Time Capsule incorporates both a wireless router and a hard drive into the same product. In its niche, the Time Capsule is the most advanced product on the market -- its price is also fair compared with a separate router and network-attached hard drive.
An appreciably large NAS server targeted for small- or home office use, above-average performance and considerable storage space make the Iomega Storcenter Pro 150d a great solution for data archiving and backing up PCs in your office.
