Hi,
I currently have an old Buffalo Linkstation - think it is a version 1 LS-CHL and it is just 500GB.
Looking to replace it because
1) It is pretty much full
2) It has had a few wobbles where it has failed to start up
It is only used as a centralised file store - documents, photos. I don't have huge libraries of ripped music and videos.
I would like to get into a better regime for backups, having recently lost a hard disk on my PC.
So wondering whether to get a newer bigger version of the same/similar or am I best looking at something different.
Speed isn't a major issue, I know it is slow but I've only really noticed it when copying the odd big file now and then, mostly I don't notice.
Appreciate any advice.
Cheers,
Nigel
