CNET Review
The Good: Easy setup; backup scheduling; print server; two USB 2.0 ports; crossover switch; compact design; integrated power supply.
The Bad: Has problems with Asian characters; lacks RAID support; lacks IPP support; lacks DHCP server.
The Bottom Line: Buffalo's LinkStation is the best low-cost solution for adding storage and a print server to a home or small-business network.
