eHomeupgrade has a scoop on a new NAS (Network Attached Storage) device which looks like a great way to enable backups as well as streaming content at home. It’s a definite competitor to the Mirra system, which conveniently was running a banner on the page…
The NetDisk works with networked and non-networked homes (via Ethernet or USB 2.0), the device appears as a local drive on every computer on the network, and requires only the loading of a single CD and plugging in a network or USB cable to setup and run. According to the Ximeta rep the company has upgraded their software to allow the NetDisk simultaneous read/write access of files stored to multiple people around the network. [eHomeUpgrade]
