Any one got one of these?

I need one as I have allot of things that cant afford to loose and I dont wont to wait until something happens before I protect that.

I am considering these two as I dont want to spend a fortune. Any one had any experience with these?

Thanks in advanced

Option 2 is better than option 1.

Option 1 has only a 10/100 network card whereas 2 has gigbit (ignoring the fact it's twice as much storage too).

Envizage are ok, I bought a 1Tb external drive a few weeks back, no prolems with it. So I'd guess their NAS' will be good, but personally I'd get a Buffalo Terastation.

Whats the difference between this one then? I know it has 4 disk, but what is the MEdia Server part? Bit Torrent and iTunes?

Any ideas?

Paul - I just built myself a RAID 'server' for £130, might be an alternative to what you've posted up so far?:

£29 - (eBay, used) PC tower base unit [AMD XP 1600, 256Mb RAM, 20Gb IDE HDD, 52x CD-ROM, 3.5" FDD, built in 10/100 LAN]
£5 - (eBay, used) 15" CRT monitor
£86 - (various places, brand new) 2x 250Gb SATA HDDs, RAID controller card, keyboard, mouse

The box also came with a genuine XP Pro COA so it also has genuine Windows on it too.
