This is all new to me so these names mean nothing, maybe are just that So a couple of things to keep in mind (this depends if you want to run other things on it too - like media services). The F4-210 is an ARM NAS, so anything you need to run on it, will need to be ARM based. The DS-SC4B is not a NAS, but rather a external disk caddy. IE: You'll need to plug it into a machine that is "the NAS" (or whatever else). The SC4B is another option to the "build your own" paradigm, ie: connect it to a small form factor server that runs the NAS software. ie: it takes care of the power/cooling and data bus for drive storage. ....лоеп --- SBBSecho 3.15-Linux * Origin: I'm playing with ANSI+videotex - wanna play too?
