As usual, we skip installation of Jumbo Frames in our testing because, although they enable higher data-transfer rates, they can also cause problems due to an absence of standards governing their implementation.

Intel NAS Performance Toolkit
We used the Intel NAS Performance Toolkit. You'll find a write-up of these benchmarks in our recent story on Hacking the HP EX470/475 MediaSmart Servers, where the individual tests and their results are discussed.

Network Storage: Three NAS Units Rounded Up
Network storage is great for centralizing data on a home or small business network. The real question is: do you build your own NAS or buy one that's already primed for action? We round up three ready-made units to see if any of them suit our fancy.

Future Promise for Graphics: PCI Express
PCI Express is coming. We try to give you a forecast of how it will affect graphic cards and systems. We also try to find out if we really need the increased bandwidth of 4 GB per second that PCI Express x16 offers at this time.
TYPO!!!
and you see that heritage in the TS-590 Pro.
What's a TS-590?
If you want something simple to share data at home I cant figure out why anyone would buy a cheap NAS that gives less than 15 mbps or something outrageous costing over $700. Why not build your own using low power cpu that would perform much better than the cheap NAS devices and still come in hundreds of dollars less than the overpriced NAS devices?
I have a Qnap TS-639 and love it

Grabbing the link from the drop down works fine, but from the conclusion page going to the next page is broken.

That's all it is. More ads so they can pay the bills.
Nevermind, read the question wrong. Need edit button.
If you want to build your own rock-solid RAID NAS, and do so with cheap old hardware, check out my guide on building a Linux RAID-5 NAS. I wrote this guide so even someone who has never worked with Linux before can get it up and running, and maintain it, very easily! Hope this helps someone out there!
Go to my site at: http://cobraftp.serveftp.com and click on Linux.. then at the top is the PDF, which is labeled "Linux RAID-5 How-to Guide"
how did you exclude the new Readynas NVX? seems kinda silly without that leader in both functionality and performance involved
I own a Synology CS-407e. Simple and just works. Leave it on all the time and just don't worry about it. Love it.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - I don't know what this site's obsession is with NAS devices, but the NS3200N is the first NAS ever reviewed here that isn't an overpriced and underperforming piece of garbage! Shame I didn't know about it sooner - I just dropped $300 on a Mini-ITX Atom 330 MB and case to make my own NAS, and I haven't even bought the two drives for my RAID1 yet. I hope I'll get better results...
Your opion is sought: Why not buy an HP MediaSmart system? It costs less than the Qnap device and seems to be similarly capable?

I'm wondering the same thing. Why wasn't one of the MS Home Server units included. None of these units are putting out blazing transfer rates.
The only thing I can figure is that these NAS units could be used for business as well as home use. Where the MS Home server is really just for home use.
I don't know about anyone else here, but I wouldn't use any of these devices for critical live biz data. Setup as near-line backup devices, sure. But not live data.
Actually.. this review is a bit short.. not a comparison for all nas boxes.. just a chumped up silly list of nas boxes that he writer found at the time. rather pathetic actually.
just to spin a spanner.. try freenas.. www.freenas.com
