Frugal NAS solution: Intel Network Storage Server – SS4200E for $135
One of my resolution for the new year is to setup a NAS (Network Attached Storage) at home so all my data can be backup in a centralized location with easy access. I would also recommend making multiple copies of your data on different disks in case of disk failure. I started my research over the Christmas break and that is when I came across SS4200E on buy.com for $135.
