just to store things? the D-Link 327L is no brainer choice.

If you require funky apps, gun for Synology.

IMO, Read/Write speed is the most important thing in what i lookout from a NAS.

I find a 1-2 bay NAS doesn't offer much compared to a cheap desktop build.

4 bays or more, that's a different story.
