Linksys Intros NAS Solution For Small Businesses

Linksys said it has developed the new NAS device to provide an economical and simple way to store data and content accumulated by small businesses.

The new Linksys NAS appliance offers 250GB of IDE hard-drive storage space that stands upright for small spaces or lays flat on the desktop. Storage capacity can increase to 500GB by adding an additional 250GB drive to the empty second drive bay. Once a second drive is installed, users can back up the first drive manually or on a schedule.

Additional quick-connect hard drive trays (EFGHDT2) are available, so users can quickly swap multiple backup drives to create rotating backups.

The Linksys NAS device is Gigabit-ready with a 10/100/1000 port, which can connect the device to a Gigabit backbone. It can also connect to a wireless network in areas where there are no Ethernet connections by using the Linksys Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge (WET54G).

The Linksys EFG250 NAS solution, available now, carries an estimated street price of $899.
