Is this a 2x500gb or 1x1000gb model? If it's an actual terabyte drive in there, then that's mad hot :Q Still under $300 for a terabyte NAS is a hot deal either way, nice find!

Still not a bad deal then...you're basically getting a free NAS enclosure for the price of two 500gb drives.

And a slick looking enclosure at that. Lacie enclosures are NICE!!!

Unless the newegg picture is deceiving, it doesn't look big enough to house 2x500gb drives. Looks to me like this is just one big drive.

Of course, I could be wrong

I wouldn't trust my data to this. ~1TB of data, and if 1 drive fails, then bye bye to ~1TB of data.

They should have the option of doing RAID 1, so at least if ~500GB drive fails, then you still have a backup.

They need to offer eSATA connection, and RAID 1 support.

It still is a OK deal though if you don't mind the potential of losing all that data.

I could not find a size limit on filesize , can it handle a 9 gig + file?

Not for an external drive. Most of them (including Seagate and WD) are 1 year for externals. Pretty hot warranty for an external, actually.

 

[gabemcg]

gigabit is nice too...

I decided to wait, the 1tb drives are gonna hopefully knock the price on this thing down about $50

Seagate's Freeagent series (external drives) are 5 years. So 2 years is warm.
