My ReadyNAS Story . . .
Day 1... After a month going back and forth between manufacturers, and then finally between the Pro 2, 4, and 6, I order the 6 from Amazon on Tuesday along with two Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB SATA...

Day 3 ...
Got to spend the weekend just toying around. I did another factory reset because I liked the benefits I read of X-Raid over me just manually configuring Raid 1. I installed the Transmission plugin and downloaded Project Gutenberg and Ubuntu just to see how it worked. I played more with Plex and signed up for MyPlex. I've streamed Rise of the Silver Surfer over 3G (AT&T) and after about a minute or so of it playing catch up, it worked beautifully. Still pretty happy with the decision, I'll hold off putting my production (home) data on there until I get a good backup solution working, however - I'm leaning towards S3 w/ JungleDisk because I don't think I can beat $0.125/GB and I'm already familiar with S3 and happy with the security.
