There is one drive installed that is not easily removable, the other is in a hot swap style bay but it does not support hot swap. The biggest negative is that it uses a propriatary linux file system, it can read NTFS and FAT 32 but not wright to it. it supports multiple shared folders with passwords assigned to each. also supports HTTP and FTP access in read only and full access modes. also supports media streaming, i assume this is for the media bridge units but not sure. hope this answered any questions you all had.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 25th 2006 3:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/18/hp-media-vault-nas-we-go-again/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/18/hp-media-vault-nas-we-go-again/</guid><description><![CDATA[Great idea, but they need to do something with the pricing and setup of the device.
