Buyers Guide: NAS PC Configuration

Buyers Guide: NAS PC Configuration

Do you share data between multiple machines on your network? It might be time to consider a NAS appliance, which lets you manage a single copy of your information. Of course, a NAS device doesn't require a lot of horsepower, which is why this machine gets away with a VIA Nano-based embedded board from Jetway. A completely separate storage subsystem is both scalable and affordable. A special congratulations to forum member palladin9479 for having his recommended build picked by the Tom's Hardware community this quarter!
