    Need Help - Options for Setting Up USB Printer Wirelessly???

    Hey guys, I just purchased a new photo printer (Canon Pixma Pro9000 Mark II), but it is just a USB printer and I really need to set it up wirelessly. Unfortunately, my wireless router (Netgear WNDR3700) does not have a built in print server and the USB port on it is only good for storage. I...

    Backup Solution for Synology 1010+???

    Thanks Tim! I will want to incorporate some cloud based backup solution (in case of house fire, theft, etc that would also wipe out local backups), so how does Amazon S3 compare to Mozy and Carbonite?

    Synology 1010+ 5100???

    OK, I'm confused. Could be the imperfect translation or my imperfect understanduing of NAS's. Is the 1511+ a successor to the 1010+? If so, when would it be expected in the US?

    Synology 1010+ 5100???

    I talked to Synology today. They said they are currently using Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 drives (ST31000528AS). Pretty high failure rates with the Seagates...think I would greatly prefer the Samsung F1's mentioned above. Maybe I'll get lucky. :rolleyes:
