    Apple A5 into Time Capsule.

    Finally, we have a a CPU that is fast enough for 100MB/s and fast enough for other operations! NAS has been stuck between either 16bit ARM Marvell Kirkwood CPU, while they are cheap ( compare to Intel ) does perform well at 1.2Ghz and beyond. Then there is the Intel Atom, power hungry, yet...

    Cisco Revamps Entire N Router Line

    It is just annoying that we are getting the same, old slow CPU inside all these Routers. Even Cisco E4200 is the same hardware as 3 years ago. They are trying to milk the market, and we still dont have Gigabit Ethernet as standard.....

    Cisco Revamps Entire N Router Line

    Do they even use the same chipset? Which they have been using it for... 3 - 4 years? I remember Linksys were using it, then Cisco release a new skin and new name called E - Series, which are exactly the same other then the new casing. Now they are doing the same again?

    New Synology DS211+

    Well 211 wasn't released that long ago and now we have 211+ Which is exactly THE SAME as 211 ( 1.6GHz CPU ) expect 512MB Ram New Casing And a ESATA Port. Last time i checked the Qnap 219P+ offer exactly the same features ( i think with one more ESATA port i am not sure ) at the same...

    QNAP Debuts New TS-x19P+ Line-up NAS

    I forgot to mention, the design of these new Qnap x19+ are different, the drive panel now has holes to allow much better air flow. And if they added a silicon image controller, then it is a much better buy then synology.

    New Synology Models DS411J, DS211J, DS211, DS111

    It is just the eSATA being more useful in the future. DS111 is cheaper for an initial investment cost. And if someday you do need more or a lot more space, you can always attached something like the RX510, and external RAID storage system and connect you your eSATA. You could also do the...

    New Synology Models DS411J, DS211J, DS211, DS111

    Well the DS111 has a eSATA port while the DS211 doesn't. Which makes the DS111 a better investment for new NAS users.

    New Synology Models DS411J, DS211J, DS211, DS111

    Unless i miss anything, this website completely lack the understanding between Mb and MB. It even doesn't know the different between DS210, DS210+ and DS211....... Apart from that. The performance Data is all need to read into.

    Synology or Qnap? - Hardware Wise

    I dont see any of those added features in Software from these two companies being any use to me. So Pure Read / Write Speed and Quality of Hardware is more important. In terms of the DS 209 and TS 210 Series. Which one has better design in Hardware. It seems to me Synology like using...

    Number of Clients , Antenna and Throughput.

    What about latency? Also would two antenna double the range? Or would it merely give much better bandwidth at the edge of network? Since my Internet Connection is only 2MBbps, so bandwidth does really matter to me for Wireless connection ( it would be slow anyway ),

    Number of Clients , Antenna and Throughput.

    While the throughput is related to the number of Clients using the Wireless Router, would an increase in clients decrease the range of a Router? And are there a limit to number of wireless client in a Router and Antenna. I only need very low bandwidth, but there would be up to 15 clients...

    Buffalo Unleashes Faster LinkStations

    Opps, i didn't check with Smallnetbuilder's review. ( Mainly because i have been having rendering problem with Firefox on this site ) I got the Data direct from Qnap FTP speed reading. Would that means WD is already using 2Ghz Marvell chip?

    Buffalo Unleashes Faster LinkStations

    I think this is the new chip that contains inside the new Linkstation. I haven't seen any other NAS using it yet, i suspect the recent announced WD MyBook NAS is using it, if you have seen others please post here. The quoted performance for 1.6Ghz is around 76MB/s, which is much lower then...
