Negative Positive
Title: Disappointing Experience
Review: I urge you to read carefully:1) Make sure you own/plan to purchase drives that are less than 12 months old2) Make sure you have carefully read other users' experiences at the Netgear forum (http://forum1.netgear.com/support/viewforum.php?f=38)3) Make sure you only plan to use Windows 2000 or Windows XP to access the device because you must install special storage drivers from Zetera4) You should understand that this is a SAN (not a NAS) device which means that the drive partitions on the Netgear are mapped from a specific computer and must be accessed via a special iSCSI device driver for Windows (for the money and the limited functionality you're better off with a pair of USB enclosures)5) You should be very comfortable with troubleshooting Windows networking and using proprietary command-line tools to diagnose problems with this device.
Is the review positive or negative?
