Dig out an old computer (or alternatively grab some USB enclosures).

Put the drives in the computer. Build a raid, either with software or hardware. Hook up a network card. There ya go... lots of network attached storage. If it's terabytes of important crap, then you can even do mirroring or parity, which I doubt this thing will do.

Oh well...if you've got money to burn and you're stupid maybe this is the way to go instead.]]>Jun 13th 2006 12:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/interact-tvs-tellyraid-serves-2tb-of-tv/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/interact-tvs-tellyraid-serves-2tb-of-tv/
I ended up building my own RAID-5 system cuz it's cheaper and much more expandable than 4 drives. My current system can handle 16 drives at high speed (2x PCI-X at 8 drives each) and more if I'm willing to drop to PCI speeds (though for what I do, I doubt I'll notice that transfer rate drop).]]>Jun 13th 2006 2:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/interact-tvs-tellyraid-serves-2tb-of-tv/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/12/interact-tvs-tellyraid-serves-2tb-of-tv/Jun 13th 2006 8:47AM
