ReadyNAS Duo - A great solution, but not for everyone IMO 0 of 4 Ciao Users found the following review helpful
Rating from DaveSharpe 4 Stars ()

Advantages versatile robust chassis

Disadvantages hard to justify cost if you are just using it to back up data

Recently acquired a ReadyNAS Duo with 2x 1TB drives in.

I found the device incredibly versatile - this is not just a NAS. It is a sign of what is to come - a low power, incredibly versatile box of tricks which sits quietly (except during boot up) in a corner somewhere chugging away.

I haven't used it to its full potential yet - but I do have it setup to download all my movies/music using an NZB and Torrent plugin. I also installed MRTG which allows me to view traffic graphs from my home network.

As a backup device alone - this is not a good product. Its not trivial to get going, the interface is a little sluggish as well - and its awful value for money. You are better off purchasing a normal external SATA disk with a USB cable for backups.

But if your a small business wanting something a little fancier, or your a home enthusiast I recommend you give this a shot.
