Be a man and get a microserver. Don't be a nub.

Netgear are cheap in name and price unfortunately. What's your budget?

I've got one, has been working well, been running without a hitch for the last 5months.

Can be a little noisy every now again so is best to be able to stash it out of earshot.

Interesting you mention the MicroServer - I did come accross it at some stage when I was researching storage.
I like the idea of RAID-X being expandable with the drives.

What is the deal if one were to get the HP MicroServer and put 3 drives in it, then decide later on that 4 drives is the way to go. Will you have to manually expand the RAID?

That depends on the operating/storage system you put on it.


Don't use hardware raid on it, it only does 1 and 0.
