NAS Central would like to wish all its users merry Christmas and a happy new year!
A review of the new Thecus N2200 is up and not looking too good here at smallnetbuilder.com – also linuxdevices.com have a bit of information up about the Synology DS210j.
Do you have a bit of spare time over the festive period? Help us by documenting any useful information you have in the wiki for your manufacturer – thanks!

We updated a few bits this week:
timtim | December 6, 2009
Today we added a new forum at the NAS-Central Buffalo Forums for Kirkwood based devices such as the LS-CHL V2 and the LS-XHL. Also there is a new sub-forum for the MV78100 based Terastation III.
We have moved some posts into these new areas to keep things tidy!

To allow for a more centralised and simple method of reporting news to the NAS-Central wikis we have made some changes to the news system for the wiki front pages:
- News from all wikis moved to blog and categorised
- We made a custom RSS feed merger that runs hourly to build the news feed
- Wiki feeds each contain NAS-Central, NAS Community News the and manufacturer specific category for that wiki
- We wrote a MediaWiki plugin that works the way we want it to to display it!
If you want to report news subscribe to this blog so you have an account then contact us!

The Xtreamer e-Trayz NAS
Xtreamer have posted information on their upcoming e-TRAYz device in their forum. This device at first glance appears to include the standard features you would expect in a typical NAS and features a pretty low price tag for a two bay NAS!
Initially you will need to own one of their media streamer devices to order one of these babies. Also one bit of information for NAS-Central readers from the FAQ:
“Q. Will the eTRAYz be based on open source ?
A. No. The community will not be able to write code to this product nor it will be released.”
Thanks engadget.

The QNAP TS-219P
QNAP have a new Kirkwood based NAS device available – the TS-219P. This features the new 1.2 Ghz Marvell Kirkwood processor, 512 MB RAM and QNAPs new AJAX GUI and promises to be significantly faster than the older, slower Orion based models.
QNAPs products previously came with one of the best manufacturer supplied firmwares for home NAS devices and have good build quality but usually come out a bit more expensive than competing products. Read the review over at The Register and check out the TS-219P product page to see if they are keeping their standards high!
Update: For the curious pictures of the disassembly and internals of the TS-219P and the TS-219 are up at the Debian section of Martin Michlmayrs site.
