    Yes, an old thread, but I;ve just seen the i5500 on Scan.

    Holy ****!

    I'd bloomin well hope it had "unrivalled performance" considdering it costs about twice as much as a N5200.

    Glad I didn't wait for it before purchasing my second N5200.

    Wow. I've not heard of this kit before and damn that is some price (£970)!!

    Good for putting under the stairs and storing all those TV shows, etc.

    If thats all you are going to do, get the N5200Pro instead. About half the price, good performance and more flexible because of the number of add on software modules the community has put together.

    It still does iSCSI if you need that, perhaps not as fast as the i5500, but it still does it well.
