Also very interested in this...anybody try this out yet? - just the NAS i was looking for in the right price range with the right features as well...

Looks like its very new and there aren't any reviews yet. Recent reviews of other Thecus NAS products are very good.

Full specs reveal that this Dual Core Cranium CPU is 600MHz. Quite slow. Also because of their hardware raid chip limitations, the common tasks of adding 4th disk to a 3 disk setup is not allowed, which makes this a no go!

I need to get a cheap NAS but can't decide on what to get

I would want it to be around $100 - $150 ($150 only if it includes a HD)

Here is what I want to mainly use it for:

• Stream Media
• Download via built in bittorrent client
• Might want to run web server for PHP or ASP
• FTP server (optional)

The 2 I can think of that are good are the WD MyBook Live 1TB for $129 and the 2TB for $159 (On Amazon.ca) and the Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive - Cloud Edition 1TB for $119 (Dell.ca and Amazon.ca)

What do you guys recommend for a cheap solution. I know there is the DLINK DNS-320 for $99 on sale but I would have to buy a HD and that will cost atleast another $100 for 1TB, so I wanted to avoid buying another HD.
