[QUOTE="Donkey Hodie, post: 1327262, member: 220900"] Well, I don't know about "best" since I haven't sampled them all but I've got a Netgear Ultra 4 NAS that works very well with both my Mac Pro and PC's. [img]http://www.netgear.com/images/ReadyNAS-Ultra4-Product-Large18-8133.png[/img] It's probably not the cheapest out there ($499 at Amazon without disks) but it has a nice web interface, is easily set up and managed and, more importantly, is reliable. I've got mine configured with 4 750 MB drives but you can use drives up to 2 TB in size so it'd have 8 TB total capacity. I've had it for over a year and during that time I had a drive fail. Unplugged it, plugged in a new one (I keep a couple on hand) and it seamlessly recovered and integrated the new drive. It works with both Time Machine and Windows backup software. [/QUOTE]
