I plan on getting a big NAS storage for my Xbox360 network. So far, the NAS200 by Linksys looks promising. But does anybody know if this will be detected by the Xbox360? I've been searching google and yahoo and some say can, some say can't....... So really not sure.....

Anybody has any clues?

can u link to the url that refer on product that u said...

QNAP works.

Dunno where to find QNAP products in KL...... went to Low Yat for a quick sweep, but can't find anything..... Do you know of any??

And this is the link to the Linksys: http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c...d=7691562139B02

Not sure about Malaysia. Sorry. According to their website, there are no distributors in SG or MY. I bought my TS-209 for about HK$2,250.

Unfortunately, Synology still doesn't play well with xbox or ps3. They said they will support this feature in future firmware updates, but until now still no sign.

Yup. I got all the info I needed. Then I saw the Price......
Rm1500 for the QNAP I wanted

With that cash, can build a small PC with a linux distro!

Yes and No.

First u must know how to install and use linux (firewall, version upgrade, after sales support +.....)

and if we compare both QNAP VS small PC runing linux :

1) Power consumption ( this will show in your TNB electric bill )
in sleeping mode : only 5.1W
in operation mode: only 22.8W vs PC server ( 300W~350W)
so the total save W x 24 hrs x 365 day => $$$$

2) Low Noise Level:
PC : 53dB
QNAP: 26dB
Synology: 26dB


3) support: 24 x 7 online support / Efficient and Spot-on Problem solving ability/ forum and our support center @ low yat plaza lot 4.29 open 7 days a week

4) Ultra-high speed Performance
-QNAP: 33MB/s
- Synology 49MB/s (DS-508)

5) Field Proven Quality

6) Synology wiki-database

7) Extremely active forum
− 29,545 Total Post
− 6,589 Total Topic

8) Synology/QNAP develops all Hardware, Software.
. Up-to-Date Technology enhancement
− Regular software/firmware update with new technology, for FREE!

so, imaging, you had brought DS-106 (2 years ago) and you still can download the new firmware with new feature/technology and all of this is FREE

so, compare with all the new feature and ongoing added feature, QNAP /Synology NAS is value for money.

you are not paying for today what you get but also new feature.

Just want something to store my Hard drives and deliver it to my Xbox360..... read that must use windows XP Media Center/vista..... which I have a spare copy of.

Again....... it's over my budget already, so I dropped that idea.

than u can wait for Synology DS-108j @ RM 599..... stock arrive by end of april

synology DS-108j

Minimum 2 Bay PLUS expandable via USB....... must support Xbox360 transfer........ all below Rm800

That's why I know it's impossible, thus project abandoned.

Actually DS-108j support up to 4 HDD : 1 internal and 3 external, total up to 4 TB in single box....

Will think about it man.......
Thanks for the info anyway.......

ok.. u are welcome...

BTW, just turn on the Upnp and multimedia function in the Synology / QNAP NAS, your xbox or PS3 will detect this NAS under media player server
