Computerworld has recently reported that in the next few years the sum total of Earth’s data will be in the two zetabyte vicinity. One Zetabyte is equal to one billion gigabytes.. in case you were wondering.
My personal and family data storage — says reviewer Paul Moons — is still a little off that, but it has increased significantly since the birth of our child four years ago. This data is mainly in the form of digital photos and videos or work documents and it is all over the place: DVDs, CDs, hard drives in different PCs, etc.
The D-Link DNS-323 NAS RAID box offers a relatively inexpensive long term storage solution which can keep all your data in one place, allow universal access and when setup as a RAID 1 device, secure it from hardware gremlins.

Michael says:
RAID 0 will not protect you from anything, including hardware gremlins.

I have heard about NAS devices for years and still have not found one that lives up to its hype. They are expensive and slow. How much harder are they to build than regular usb/firwire/esata enclosures that can be gotten for under $20? One of these days they will get gigabit speed (TRUE GIGABIT, not claimed) and actually have the price point to be worth mentioning.
