And while it recently has gotten back into the NAS game with its enterprise-grade NSS line, Linksys seemed content with letting the "Slug" (as it is known in the hacking community) lead its consumer NAS charge. Well, folks, the wait is over and Linksys is finally shipping the new two-drive BYOD NAS that it showed back at January's CES. The good news is that the NAS200 is aggressively priced, supports two SATA drives in individual, JBOD, RAID 0 and RAID 1 modes and has built-in UPnP AV and FTP servers. The bad news is that it's slow—slower on the average than even the NSLU2, and that's without the overclocking hack that is commonly applied."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/cgg-nas-082107.jpg" /><br /><br />If you have modest needs and modest means for network storage, Linksys might have what you are looking for.
