Answers for Storage

I need a good home Mass storage solution?

I have about 1tb of data, probably looking to have a NAS server/setup/something of 2tb

i have 4 320gb HDD’s but HDD’s are cheap these days, i dont mind buying more

Help is much appreciated.

( NAS stands for network-attached-storage )

NAS is a pretty expensive option. Build a cheap machine, load it up with as many drives as you want, 4X500GB or 2X1TB, and put it on your network, use it as a file server. If you’re just using it for data storage then you don’t need anything exceptionally powerful, just disk space.
