       Works well as my media server - UPDATE!

      | | See all Reviewer's reviews (14)

      I have a 500Gb WD external drive attached to one of the ports, this currently holds over 600 video files, all can be accessed by my Philips Streamium player downstairs.

      Pros
      -----
      - 2 x external ports
      - Works with my Philips media player (no more leaving the PC on!)
      - Supports a USB printer
      - Very good network drive (no drivers required!)
      - Handles FAT32/NTFS on external USB drives

      Cons
      ------
      - Doesn't allow full control of external USB drives if not in native format (i.e. can not directly store files on drive!).
      - User interface seems slow to respond (considering I have a 100mb connection)
      - Some options not straight forward.

      I only gave it the 4 stars because of my negative remarks, however I do like this device and it's working fine for me. If you need a network drive then this is perfect, if you need a media server then this works (for me).

      UPDATE : I've now downgraded this to 3 stars, still works fine as a network drive but the media functionality has been problematic and I've stopped using it for this purpose!
