Recomendations (323 RIP)

Hello All,

My DNS-323 just died....
I wanted to come over here and see if there is a bit better NAS that can support ffp.
The Dlink 323 is a bit out dated and I am looking for something more robust and more efficient.

Any recommendations?

TIA

Re: Recomendations (323 RIP)

I went from the DNS-323 to the DNS-325 and have been happy ever since.
The 325 has a (much) faster CPU, more RAM, and a newer version of Linux. I've put ffp-0.7-arm on it and it's running very well.
The best part: It cost me only 99€ (although without drives, and it was a special offer).
The only thing I don't like about it is that there's only 1 USB port, and that one is blocked because I run FFP off a USB stick.

You should check it out.

Re: Recomendations (323 RIP)

All ZyXEL NASses support FFP via an FFP-Stick. You have the choice between
NSA 310, single bay, Kirkwood 1200MHz, 256 MB ram, 2 usb ports, 1 e-sata port, +/- 50 euros
NSA 320, dual bay, Kirkwood 1200MHz, 512 MB ram, 3 usb ports, +/- 100 euros
NSA 325, dual bay, Kirkwood 1600MH, 512 MB ram, 2*usb 2.0, 1*usb 3.0, +/- 150 euros

Maybe also the older NSA210 (single bay) and NSA221 (dualbay) are still for sale, somewhere. Stay away from these, unless you can get them really cheap. They have an Oxnas 810 processor, which is even slower than the good old Orion. More info here.
