“The Mega-NAS project begins. I did some research on brand name high-capacity storage solutions. It will cost $30 000 – $50 000 for a network storage solution that meets my requirements. That is well beyond my budget. It is up to me to design and build a system capable of meeting my high capacity and processing power requirements.”Here are some more Storage reviews from around the web:
