Mind if I ask what are you storing and how do you plan setting them up? And what do you plan to do with the nas?

I usually only see people who needs tons of raw storage wishing for 5-8bay units (HD video footage)

If you are looking for 5-8bay solution, it probably makes more sense building one on your own in the long run.

Slap some 2 or 3TB HDDs onto a good PCI-E raid controller in i3/H55 combo. Not only you have the most flexible setup in term of functionality and the most expandable solution too.

I built one not long ago for my friends company and it rocks as NAS, intraweb server, mail server... you name it.
