That's about the only good thing about the Netgear SC101 - you can set them up so that it appears as if you've just the one drive with the combined capacity of all the drives, so if you've three SC101s with a motly collection of six different sized drives, you can use them as one big drive... can't say I fancy it, though!

I've got five of them, each with a pair of matched drives set as mirrors. It gives me some redundancy, and I've not really had much bother with them... except when I thought a pair of drives were suspect, changed them only to have the replacements appear to fail a little later. The SC101 was sill under warranty, so Netgear very kindly sent me a replacement on the understanding that I'd send the faulty one back, which is very unusual these days. Problem solved!

The real pain, though, is the daft file system they use. If an SC101 fails there's no way of reading the drives unless you have a spare unit... which is why I ended up with five of them!

Even sillier, each phyisical drive has its own IP address, and each partition also has its own IP address... so the five units I have use up 20 IP addresses to function! If each phyisical drive had two partitions, that would need 30 IP addresses!

At least the LG device uses NTFS!

Just a thought... an old PC can be set up using FreeNAS, which is a LINUX-based application. You set the PC to boot from a USB fob during set-up, and then you're able to set up as many hard drives as the motherboard can support as a NAS array. I've been threatening to give it a go, but never seem to find the time!
