Abstract: Are the hard drives in your computer full, but external hard drives don't provide enough space or safety? What you need then is Network Attached Storage (NAS). If you go for the ones with room for four to five normal hard drives, it will give you a larg...

A superbly built NAS appliance that's easy to manage, but it's let down by very poor performance...
The LaCie 5big Network 2 offers lots of storage space and ease of use in a bold, practical and impressive design. The NAS server also offers decent performance and useful features, such as Auto RAID and support for Lion's Time Machine
The LaCie 5big Network 2 performance could be comparatively better. Replacing its hard drive will void the warranty
The LaCie 5big Network 2 is appealing mostly to home users, especially sci-fi movie fans or fashion designers. Advanced and savvy users might be turned off by its lack of features and comparatively low performance.

Abstract: Je kunt niet uit de voeten met maar één of twee harde schijven, je hebt behoefte aan meer? Geen probleem met de NAS-apparaten uit deze test: dankzij de ruimte voor vier of vijf harde schijven kun je hiermee als echte verzamelaar prima mee uit de voeten...
Abstract: Ons testexemplaar werd geleverd met 5 harde schijven van 1 TB aan boord, voor slechts € 636. Noh lang niet zoveel als de QNAP kost . Niet veel voor een 5-bay NAS. Eerlijkheid gebiedt ons wel te zeggen dat de LaCie 5big niet in iedere configuratie zo gunstig is.
