Rick,
You can easily achieve similar capabilities with Linux for a fraction of
the price. In fact, you'd have all the capabilities of a full file
server, which is far more than you'll get with a NAS. You could even cut
out the RAID controller and use software RAID via the Linux kernel if your
CPU is fast, and performance isn't critical (save $300+).

I was thinking about getting a NAS for the office but I don't see why they
need to be so expensive. It looks like I could do the same thing with some
hard drives, a RAID controller and Samba. Am I missing something here?
