Consumers can use the NAS200 Two Bay Network Attached Storage (NAS) solution (RRP $249.95) for a number of tasks that technology-orientated users demand today including streaming music or high definition videos stored on the unit for playback on a PC or a games console.
The standalone unit doesn't require any special software or a separate PC, as it includes its own two 3.5-inch SATA (serial ATA) drive bays allowing users to choose the capacity of hard disk drive they need, depending on how much data they want to store.
"Digital photos, music, and videos are requiring more storage capacity than ever before as the connected home continues to grow. The NAS200 is an expandable home network appliance that is designed to allow users to easily add storage space to their network," said Linksys regional director for Australia and New Zealand, Graeme Reardon.
