User Reviews for Linksys Linksys NETWORK STORAGE LINK USB 2.0

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Easy to set up, convenient for file sharing, simple interface.

  Weaknesses: Cannot use hard disks over 250 GB.

  Overall Evaluation: Besides the fact that one cannot use a hard disk over 250 GB, this small interface unit does quite a bit. Having used two for work, one can fully appreciate its use. Of course, one could potentially alter the firmware with Linux, but for others, the simple to use web-based configuration guide is just enough. Should you need, though, say, two or four TB, an industrial sized storage device will do best.

  Strengths: Small form factor, quiet, works well

  Weaknesses: none

  Overall Evaluation: I've played with this little unit for months now and have finally come to love it. Yes, it takes 30 seconds or more to come up to speed but why be in a hurry. I recently was able to backup all the MP3's of the two girls iTunes folders with ease. Each girl had over 800 tunes. Once I culled out the two or three songs that had CRC errors, I would restart the copying and then it finished without error. I have backed up more files on two other computers in the house and am going to continue to do so. I intend to buy a second drive for redundent backup.
