About this product
The NETGEAR RN10400 is a 4-bay Network Attached Storage (NAS) device designed to house HDDs. It features a 512 MB cache for efficient data handling and supports USB 3.0 and Ethernet interfaces for connectivity. The system is black and includes removable drive cartridges, simplifying the installation and replacement of hard drives. This diskless unit provides a foundational platform for users to build their own network storage solution.
Our take
This NETGEAR RN10400 offers a solid entry point for anyone looking to set up a personal or small office NAS. The 4 bays mean you've got good expansion potential for HDDs, and the USB 3.0 port is a definite plus for quick external backups or connecting peripherals. I appreciate the removable drive cartridges, as they make adding or swapping drives much less of a hassle. However, with only 512MB of cache, it's not going to be a speed demon for heavy, simultaneous access. It's a foundational unit, so you'll need to supply your own drives, but for the price, it’s a capable storage base.
