[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1437539, member: 110816"] Welcome to Mac-Forums.. From what I read, it sounds like a NAS might be a better option for you. You can find one with enough bays and features to suite your budget and needs. It can be configured as an always on thing and also more NAS' can be easily accessed by Mac's using AFP, Windows machines through sharing and Linux through NFS.. I have a NAS that I use for my media/file storage and my data is protected with the available RAID. My NAS also acts as my music and video streamer so that I can stream videos directly to my XBOX and Samsung TV which are both DLNA complaint. I have the Netgear ReadyNAS NV+.. [/QUOTE]
