Do not buy this! Had to reset a few times, noisey fan and now it does not work at all.
Review by Joseph S. Vinci, 2008-11-30
I purchased the Verbatim Soho NAS drive to use as a share backup drive and music repository. Little did I knbow taht if using Vista Home Premium and wondows XP workstations and laptops, it will most likely give you fits and starts and really bad throughput. When put on a dedicated switch at my home for only backups, with samba enabled and user id's matching all accounts, only the XP machines can connect, and not always reliabily.
The more data you copy or write to the drive the slower the network gets froim the perspective of the drive and the host machines.
There is no support or updates from Verbatim since 2006.
Not worth the trouble for any situation.
