Re: LaCie 500GB Ethernet Disk Mini Gigabit NAS
I've been using a Bufallo linkstation for years. Just about to pull it apart and put a 500Gb HDD in it.
Only maintainance it has needed is some oil on the fan.
Some of the newer ones have louder fans. The linkstation is pretty quiet. The WD MyBook with an ethernet socket has had comments about how loud it can be with the fan on.
The FTP server function on it is great. I have all external FTP requests to my IP directed to the linkstation which then directs them to a specific folder on the linkstation. That can then either by anonymous or authenticated and read only or read write.
Never really worked with the printer functionality though.
It has my outlook.pst folders on it, my iTunes and i have not had any performance issues, though at the moment it is complaining about me backing up the content of the drive to its attached USB drive while also backing that up to a USB drive attached to the PC!
