I purchased a DS212 (not the DS212j). Not yet sold by Newegg, so I found a vendor on Amazon -$15 shipping for 2 day delivery from NV to CA.
I over-studied which NAS to buy for my home needs and chose the DS212 hoping that since it's new/fast that I'll be happy with it for several years.
I'm a hard sell and I expect high quality in the applications on the NAS; Stated otherwise, I'm tired of bad/crappy firmware so often found in consumer WiFi, and beyond crummy in Netgear's NAS I bought some time ago.
The DS212, after 3 days' familiarization and use, has exceeded my expectations in ease of use, speed and application robustness. The Ajax-based UI is amazing. I am delighted!
