I am a long time IT veteran and have been around these types of devices for over a decade. I have got to say so far I am thoroughly impressed with this device. It was so simple to set-up I am convinced my 7 year old could do it without any help. For the money, I don't see anything comparative. The only thing I can think of it the Drobo line, but these are less expensive for sure.
Get one of these with 2 3TB drives and you will have all of the back-up storage you need with the piece of mind that a mirrored drive provides. Watch the recommendations that Amazon make on this. I took their recommendation without paying attention and ended up ordering a 2 TB drive and a 3 TB drive, which in a mirrored disk system you are wasting a terabyte.
For you techies it will let you present an iscsi LUN to your desktop which is a very cool feature that some of the big boy SAN's have. Overall great product for the price... so far only two weeks into it......Works great for the money
