Buffalo Technology LinkStation Live Review

The Buffalo Technology LinkStation is a NAS drive that supports Apple iTunes, and lets you access it remotely. We just wish the thing worked!

Snip:

"As with most storage products, what makes the LinkStation special isn’t the hard drive, but rather what you can do with it. All storage products are similar in that at their core they are just a hard drive in a chassis, so what sets them apart is the included software and additional features. A NAS drive is basically a hard drive with an Ethernet port, so you plug it into your network to give all users a central place for storage and file sharing.

This is the 250GB model, but there are larger variants including 320GB, 500GB, 750GB and 1TB. The package includes the drive, a network cable, and backup software.

The front of the LinkStation Live has just a simple array of lights to let you know it’s powered, active, and when there’s a problem. The rear sports an Ethernet port and two USB ports for turning it into a print server, or for adding external USB drives for more storage down the road. "
