news 28 Posted June 19, 2008 Hi everyone, I'm sure we don't need to expound upon the increasing importance of data in the lives of everyone in this day and age, with regard to both its integrity and the ability to share that data as and when necessary. This increasing importance of data storage and sharing has led to an explosion in the Network Attached Storage device market, targeting everybody from home users to massive corporations. The subject of today's review, QNAP's TS-409 Turbo NAS, is aimed at both high-end home users as well as small business functionality, offering up an extremely rich feature set coupled with plenty of more advanced RAID capabilities all the way up to RAID 5 and 6. We take a look to see just what it offers up to users, as well as how it performs. QNAP TS-409 Turbo NAS review "Amongst the network settings is the ability to enable, disable and configure numerous facets of the device, which also allows us to see just how much functionality the TS-409 offers. This includes an FTP service, the ability to use the device as an iTunes, web or MySQL server, or as a media server complete with support to provide media to an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 console. One of the more powerful aspects of the TS-409 involves the simple creation and upgrade of disk volumes. RAID volumes can easily be migrated on the fly, making for simple upgradability whether you're adding or upgrading drives, with this portion of the control panel showing the current status of any volumes together with those upgrade options." http://www.elitebastards.com/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=580&Itemid=27 As always, a news post on your site would be hugely appreciated, and we guarantee to reciprocate by posting any news items received from yourselves.
