Comment Thecus N5200Pro works brilliantly for me (Score 1) 621

After a lot of research, I chose the Thecus N5200 Pro for my NAS. As one of the very few enclosures that takes five disks, it gives you a lot more storage capacity. Here are the thigns that I like about it: - takes five disks, therefore up to almost 4TB in RAID 5 with 1TB disks (this is how I'm running it) - uses a Celeron CPU rather than XScale or other underpowered CPUs that most other NAS's use. This enables it to get significantly better performance than XScale models - 512MB cache memory - dual GigE ports offering load balancing or failover. As previously stated about the Netgear NV+, it just works. But this has the benefit of not being short of CPU power (especially when calcuating parity over 5 disks) and having 5 disks to give you the additional storage and performance of additional spindles.
