Looking for NAS Hardware Recommendations

[Tom Ostlund]

It costs more but it is a "set it and forget it" solution

Take a look at Drobo.com

I have had my drobo for 5 years without a single issue. You can install any combination of sata drives and it takes care of the rest. 

It has really worked well for me.

I have a small network and would like to set up some network backaup/storage. I looked at Best Buy and the WD MyBook 2TB NAS storage looked good at $150, but the reviews were terrible. I checked Fry's and the Iomega 2TB StoreCenter is more expensive ($239), but is has a few more bells and whistles, and is a bit faster, but runs hot according to the reviews.

What I am looking for:
1-2 TB storage
network access 
access to stored files via the Internet
compatible with Linux for automatic backups

Have you used any of these devices, or do you recommend another brand?

Thanks!
