    SAS (Serial Attacked SCSI)
    Sorry, but
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Pricing wise I would expect this to be closer to the Qnap TS-809U-RP which also has a C2D and 2GB, it is kacking the SAS capability though. So about £1,700 ex VAT or there abouts.

    Is that a pic of the new SAS device? If so it looks abit small to fit in a standard rack

    Yes that is the N8800, and no, it is a standard 2U rack unit
