    What metric should I look at to quantify wifi power/range?

    Fast NAS adapters that work with NTFS?

    I was thinking of buying this Addonics adapter but is only supports FAT32, but it's super fast. Does anyone sell a similar device that will allow me to plug my Seagate goflex desk into and become a NAS? I have seen pogoplug but I hear that device is very slow.
