This thing is awesome. It is a 2-bay NAS for 3.5" drives that can handle up to 2x4TB drives. You can host websites/email with it, backup your other PCs files, run a print server, monitor IP cameras, stream music, movies, pictures from it... There are even Apps for your phone/tablet to stream your media from anywhere (not just local streaming). Very high transfer speeds are possible on a Gigabit network, and in MCE I had no problem streaming DVD rips or playing recorded TV to multiple systems from here.
Used about 14 months - current firmware - upgraded fan to a Cooler Master 92mm unit for less noise. Works great and includes all accessories (manuals, AC adapter, CAT6 cable, and original box). $200 shipped in the US. I would add a single 2TB Seagate Barracuda XT for $220 shipped in the US.

Only for sale as I repurposed a desktop system with 4x 3TB drives as my new media hub.

One more bump before eBay... $220 shipped in the USA for the NAS plus that 2TB Seagate drive.
