Linksys NAS200 NAS Description

Linksys NAS200 Network Attached Storage Enclosure
Now you can quickly and easily add storage space onto your network with the Linksys Network Storage System. This stand-alone network appliance features two available SATA hard drive bays so you can attach as much storage as you need now, and add more later as your storage needs grow. For even more expandability, there are two USB ports that let you connect readily available USB 2.0 hard drives for even more storage space -- or plug in a USB flash disk for a convenient way of accessing your portable data files.

Connecting the Storage System to your network is simple -- just plug it directly into an available 10/100 Ethernet port on your router or switch, and the storage is instantly accessible by your whole network.

The Network Storage System features built-in one-touch backup -- just push the button to start a backup of your important files. There are other built-in disk utilities, accessible through your web browser. You can run a self test or scan the disk(s) for errors. If you've installed a second disk drive, you can back up one drive to the other, either manually or on a schedule.

For even more flexibility and utility, the Network Storage System can be set up to be accessible directly from the Internet via a web browser or FTP. Files can be available publicly, or create password-protected accounts for your authorized users.

The Linksys Network Storage System is the expandable and accessible storage solution for your network.

Linksys NAS200 NAS Reviews

REVIEW BY: DamnYankee Reviewed Dec 13, 2007

Linksys NAS200 NAS unit has NO COOLING! Modern hard drives put out alot of heat. Cooling is virtually mandatory for anything over 320GB. WD My Book 500GB units fail regularly for Linksys NAS200 NAS reason - read the reviews for yourself. I strongly advise not using large drives with this unit. After readng about the My Book failures, I opened my NAS 200, only to find that my drives would suffer the same fate. I switched to 80GB drives to reduce the heat. Then I bought a higher end item for 470.00 with a 120mm fan in the back. This is good for light duty at best. Linksys really dropped the ball with this thing!

Easy to setup and use. I've had to replace the Hard Drives twice due to thermal issues. My main reason in buying this was to save money. The cost of replacing the drives once would have made up the difference to a higher end unit with fans.

I set this up for my office. It HAS a cooling fan that runs quiet. I Used WD SATA 500GB hard drives that just plug in. The file sharing and user access took me an hour to setup but it works quite well. I have 5 users and this lets me set passwords and I can block access to private files/folders so each user gets only what I choose. I agree that it is a little slow at times but it has worked out very well for me. (well enough that I am getting one for home, too)

I picked up one of these network storage devices and installed 2 500 Gig HDD from Western Digital. It works great. The network speed is 33% of 100 mbps if this helps anyone wondering how fast they are running for speed.

Very happy with the box. I put a couple of refurbished 500GB drives into it and had a network attached, terabyte backup solution. Sure, it's a little slow, but it hasn't been a problem for my use. It would be even better if it offered more RAID options, but for my uses the four options (JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1, separate disks) are enough. I've got it set up on RAID 1 because I'm a little paranoid. The NTI Shadow software that's included works seamlessly and makes sure that I am always backed up, as soon as I save a file. It's a great feeling! Highly recommended product!
