Netgear moved into desktop network storage in a big way last year when it acquired Infrant Technologies and its ReadyNAS appliances. It's certainly a force to be reckoned with in this market, but it has taken until now to complete the transition by rel...

The ReadyNAS NV+ is a superb NAS solution with built-in expandability and hot-swapping which makes management a doddle. The price is reasonable given the cost of current RAID systems; RAID still commands a premium over single drive systems. If you wan...

The ReadyNAS NV+ has loads of features, but a few bugs too. The ReadyNAS NV+ required the longest setup process of any NAS device we tested, but that seemed only fitting: It’s a big device, with huge storage capacity and a long list of features...

Buggy AFP support. Setup wizard hitandmiss with Safari 3. Expensive (price excludes hard drives).
Unreliable AFP support mars what is an otherwise flexible and high-capacity file server, media streamer, and backup device...

Fast transfers. Supports the three major desktop OSs. Granular performance-tweaking settings. Well-behaved network client. Many features.
Some parts of setup are tricky. Attached USB hard drives must be FAT or FAT32, not NTFS. Expensive.
The Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ is an excellent combination of small-business RAID muscle, gigabit throughput, and home-oriented media features. Its expensive, but worth the price if abundant storage, fast transfers, and RAID reliability are what you need...
