This looks good..

Just to check, can the print server support 2 printers?
EDIT: The manual indicated that it can only support 1 printer..

Only supports 2 torrents at any one time but thats still fine if its torrent performance is as quick as the PC's. Would appreciate if anyone with this device can provide some feedback here.

$189 is the normal retail price. I just got one. Tested 2 days with an old 15 GB harddisk. The photo station built-in HTML generator is buggy. The rest is OK for me as a home user. It's is better than the vgear landisk.

1 )
No diver is required. Once install properly. It will show up in the "My Network Places". Access will be base on the user ID profile.
I have problem access it for the first 5 min. Do not know what wrong. Not enough experience in HW & SW configuration.

2 )
Sure it's work. It's a network drive.

Regards,
