    Default NAS

    Basically looking to spend about £200 on NAS.

    It needs to be used to share files on network, use for WDTV, backup computers on network.

    Was looking at the WD My Book 2T for £120.

    Someone else suggested I look at the HP Microserver (£129.97) then add 2TB drive.

    Basically suggest a suitable NAS

    Not sure why you posted this on both here and ocuk, you're obviously going to get better replies there

    I don't restrict my posts to one forum, I tend to ask for opinions on multiple forums (hell fairly sure I posted one thread on up to 5 forums once).

    Just because i'm likely to get better replies on there doesn't mean i'm going to disregard the opinions of HxF members.

    Drobos begins at $399 with no drives included.

    I'd recommend the HP Microserver simply because it can run Windows Home Server... I built a WHS box this week for our house for my parents and I've been pretty impressed with it.

    I could have sworn it was cheaper than that
