Netgear ReadyNAS NVX Review - Why This NAS Device Might Be A Mistake For You Computers Articles | July 8 Khalil Mack Jersey , 2010
This Netgear ReadyNAS NVX Review can help you avoid making an expensive mistake and even putting your data at risk! Find out what this NAS device is best suited for and whether you should consider it for your home or business network storage needs.


When collecting my research regarding this Netgear ReadyNAS NVX Review it occurred to me that many people buy a NAS device for all of the wrong reasons. Seldom, it seems, is the right information available to determine which network storage device is right for you.

So to start out I thought it best to highlight why this ReadyNAS network attached storage device may be a mistake for you to buy:

First Walter Payton Jersey , do not buy this storage device if you only intend on putting one hard drive into it. Some people will buy a diskless ReadyNAS NVX because that is the cheapest one they can buy, and then shove a cheap disk in it.

If all you want is the equivalent of an external USB hard drive with a network card then perhaps a Netgear ReadyNAS Duo might save you even more money. My advice, though Chicago Bears Hats , is to buy the Duo with two drives and use the X-RAID data protection.

Second, the NVX may be a mistake for you if you have a small business and would benefit by rackmount network storage instead of the table top form factor of the NVX.

If you already have an equipment rack, then the Netgear ReadyNAS 2100 may be a wiser choice since it is the functional equivalent of the NVX Chicago Bears T-Shirts , only it has double the RAM and comes in 1U rackmount form factor.

The Netgear ReadyNAS NVX is extremely versatile

Now that those potential mistakes are behind us, let me explain why this versatile NAS device has a wide range of applications from home, home office to small business for network storage needs.

* This unit can be populated with between one and four hard drives Chicago Bears Hoodie , although I never recommend just one, and can have its volume(s) increased - on the fly - with more or larger hard drives at any time. Netgear's patented X-RAID2 makes this possible and even easy to do.

* A ReadyNAS NVX can simultaneously serve as a standard NAS device providing file and print sharing services to workstations and as an iSCSI target for storage of virtual machines or SAN device.

* For home network storage this unit offers premium entertainment media storage and serving. I have found no feature that home users would want or need in a network storage device that this unit does not have.

* For small business network storage this unit is powerful enough for a small office or workgroup. Currently
