[Pdog]

Hi Scan,

I wanted to buy the Icy Box IB-NAS4220-B NAS Enclosure. It was on pre-order I believe. However upon searching today I can't find it. Will scan be stocking it?

Cheers

These were scheduled to arrive yesterday, but as yet they've not arrived. As soon as I hear something I'll update you accordingly.

Any ideas on these?

When are the due in now?

[Lee H]

I've spoken to the purchasing person responsible for this range of hardware and he's stated they should be arriving in next few days.

Has anyone bought one of these? Just interested in how well it performs.. Also the Scan listing doesn't mention the BT client, is it a different model?

[Lee H]

There is no information regarding BT client on the manufacturers website for this device.

It states the follows servers are within the software configuration ;

7 Server in one
    Samba Server (for Windows network shares, MAC OS X)
    NFS Server (for Unix, Linux)
    FTP Server (remote access for file transfer from internet)
    DHCP Server (automatic network configuration)
    UPnP-AV (Twonky Media Server, 30 days test version)
    ITunes Support
    Print server (share printer via network)

This can be verified at the following link - Here

However, I'll check into this and see if there is a BT client as some places are reporting it has.

Can you make any recommendations on hard drive compatibility?

It seems there are issues with pretty much any drives other than WD or Seagate, I normally go for Samsung but these dont seem to work. Have you tested any drives in the NAS?
