Princeton unveils PNS01S NAS in compact, aluminum enclosure

by Darren Murph, posted Nov 14th 2006 at 6:01AM

Apparently Princeton's taking a breather from pumping out those LCD monitors and external battery packs, as its latest introduction comes in the form of a (relatively) compact NAS. The PNS01S sports a sleek, aluminum enclosure measuring just 2.36- x 8.27- x 7.17-inches, and comes in both 400GB and half-terabyte flavors. Each device boasts a fanless design, houses a SATA drive touting 16MB of cache, and offers up eSATA, USB 2.0, and gigabit Ethernet ports on the rear. Aside from playing nice with both Macs and PCs, it includes NetBak Replicator software to simplify those scheduled backups, and should be available later this month for a currently undisclosed price.

any particular reason you (and Akihabara News) have a Qnap TS-101 as a picture? or is Princeton just using Qnap as an OEM?

Sounds nice, hope the price is nice too.

Neil, they just used the same product image Princeton used on their own site.

I don't understand why a designer would build a hard drive case that sits upright. Add some cables and it's likely to tip/pull it over and kaboom... data crash. Don't these guys think when they work?
