PeterJames Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Indeed they do. This is my home modem/router/firewall/DMZ.

matthew.brough Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Micro I've got 4 of them and been very pleased. 3 are wan gateways and all run a Linux based piece of software and the other box is being used as a nas server running windows storage server 2012 in a iscsi config to vSphere. Just got another one off ebuyer that landed today as a spare as cash back offer on again. Only £120. As you say for the money can't grumble at all.

matthew.brough Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) what the advantage over buying a NAS boxStandard hardware which we have spares for so if any of my gateways or nas dies I have a backup unit in stock. Same with the ml110 and ml350 servers we have. By standardising in 3 boxes allows us to keep spares.With it being a windows box links in with active directory for logins Can run windows software on it and run one of the backup proxies on it for load balancing as the backup software can be a bit processor intensive. As it's windows, makes it easier for the hacker to get in Edited December 30, 2013 by matthew.brough Quote www.securitywarehouse.co.uk/catalog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJames Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I have one running SME the other is a WHS running my Plex media server about 8TB nearly 30% full of movies in MTV format. I think mine were £50 cash back when I purchased them so even cheaper than £120.00, James put me on to them. I have even thought about using them as DVRs but I dont think the processor is powerful enough for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
