saengineer - if you have a small group of people who would be accessing the files on the NV+, it should do fine. Where the speed and power of the NV+ start to falter is on video files and a large group of people trying to access files at the same time. If you need a faster unit and like the physical characteristics of the NV+, perhaps the Ultra 4 Plus or Pro 4 (has business features such as Active Directory).
I happen to really like back ups, so if you go with a faster unit, make sure it supports rsync (all the x-86 based ReadyNAS units do) and then you can use the NV+ as an rsync target and also back up to the cloud. You would then have the benefits of a local backup as well as the off site (cloud based) backup.
