I was eyeing up the N54L a few years ago for a NAS but decided for once I didn't want the hassle of building and configuring everything from scratch. It was a hard choice as you would get much better specs for your money with a microserver. The fact they tend to be noisy too was another factor. Wanted it in the front room connected to a switch near the tv so glad I went with the DS213J at the time It has a fan but it's so quiet I can't actually hear it even with the tv turned off

Might reconsider a microserver once the whole property is properly network wired so I can stick one in a utility room or another room.
