    Please help me choose a NAS. I've narrowed it down to these.

    Thank you! I actually did just gave it a go this morning. I didn't find any major differences in the OS. I was able to use both of them adequately. Quick question. I have some left over memory from my laptops. I have a spare 2x4gb kit and one 2x8gb kit that's being used by my laptop. I can...

    Please help me choose a NAS. I've narrowed it down to these.

    Hey everyone. Initially, about 2 years ago, I had bought the Shuttle OmniNas KD20 when I saw it on sale for $30 on black Friday. With it, I'm running two WD 3TB Red drives in Raid 1. The NAS has began to fail me and I feel like I've outgrown this entry level NAS. My main purposes behind a NAS...

    Is the Netgear R7000 a good router for my needs?

    Is the Netgear R7000 a good router for my needs?

    Thank you fir your help! My HTPC can see the 5.0ghz and connect to it but even though it shows 1 bar, pages don't load. I think the R7000 can be helpful. Otherwise, if I do get the R7000, do you think it'd be a good idea to keep the N56u and make that into a wireless AP?

    Is the Netgear R7000 a good router for my needs?

    The problem is that the walls of my house are pretty dense. At my home theater, the 5.0ghZ signal is pretty much lost.

    Is the Netgear R7000 a good router for my needs?

    I'm currently using an Asus RT-n56u. Its a good router and all, but it doesn't keep up with the conditions of my house. The router is located in a middle of the 2nd story of my house. I bought this router mainly to have some signal strength in a room that is on the first story in the opposite...
