    It's time for a NAS but which one?

    Hi!

    I've just moved into my own flat so I have free reign over the network .

    I'm looking for a relatively simple NAS that has:
    • USB 3.0
    • Auto power off
    • Auto power on
    • Space for at least 2, 2TB hard drives


    I spotted this on SCAN which seems to tick all the boxes:

    But then I saw this on Amazon which looks the same but £30 cheaper:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Netgear-Read...3124372&sr=8-1

    Spec:

    What's the difference and would anybody suggest something different?

    I've just looked at the manufacturer code and turns out they're the same! Woops
