Linksys EtherFast Network Attached Storage (250GB with PrintServer)

Now you can quickly and easily add 250 gigabytes of storage space onto your network with the EtherFast Network Attached Storage from Linksys. This stand-alone network appliance features two hard drive bays -- one with a 250GB drive in it, and the other available so you can add an additional up to 250GB IDE hard drive as your storage needs grow.

Installation of the Network Attached Storage is simple -- just plug it directly into your 10/100 network, and it's instantly available. Or connect it to a Gigabit network! It can serve as your network's DHCP server, and also has a built-in Print Server so you can add a network printer without burdening a PC with spooling chores.

The Network Attached Storage features built-in disk utilities, accessible through your web browser. You can run a self test, and scan or defrag the disk(s). If you've installed a second disk drive, you can back up one drive to the other, either manually or on a schedule. Additional quick-connect hard drive trays are available, so you can quickly swap multiple backup drives to create rotating backups.

For even more flexibility and utility, the Network Attached Storage can be set up to be accessible directly from the Internet -- uploading and downloading files either via a web browser or by FTP. Files can be available publicly, or create password- protected accounts for your authorized users. You can even use it as an Internet print server, saving fax machine phone charges and using the internal hard drive space to spool and print high- resolution color pages from anywhere in the world.

The EtherFast Network Attached Storage is a fast, powerful, flexible and economical addition to your network.
