Competitiveness


It does not pretend to be nas and those people who criticize it for not being nas simply didnt read netgears specifications

    Netgear has packed a nice array of extra features into this device included spanned storage combining drives or even multiple sc101s to make larger virtual drives as well as raidlike mirroring to safeguard against drive failure

    I have only two complaints about this device


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The first is that it uses a proprietary file structure not ntfs or fat32 like youd expect which is a bit annoying
