Totally useless
What their description doesn't tell you is that their software for Mac runs on the PowerPC architecture. The last time Apple released an OS that supports PowerPC was in 2009. So unless you've got a computer hanging around with 10-year-old software, this won't work for you. The website that they send you to for the latest drivers no longer exists. And to think I had to spend $14 to send this back.

Works well
I needed a quick network attached NAS box or simply USB disk. The SW is an added bonus when expanding and performing my own DR. I will use the NAS quite nicely. So I use it now for disk based storage / backup, and in the future perform BUs over the network to a different physical location and let the NAS do the heavy-lifting with networking, IDs, LUNs and such. Good Bye.

NetDisk is just what I needed for fast, easy backups
I was tired of burning CDs to backup my family's digital photos and videos and finally found NetDisk. What used to be a very manual and risky procedure (since I would only burn CDs every couple of months) is now fully automated and much less risky. Thanks to NetDisk and Super Flexible File Synchronizer, a very robust backup utility <[...] my backups occur automatically every night over my wireless LAN. It used to work Ok over 802.11b but I recently upgraded to 802.11g (in fact, Netgear's 108Mbps Super G) and it works even better. I just got a second NetDisk and started using Mirroring to ensure a full backup of our files. My wife is now able to access all files from the NetDisk on her wireless computer at any time with the simplicity of treating the NetDisk as just another disk drive on her machine. Although every now and then my wife's 802.11b connection may make the NetDisk connection a little flaky, all in all this is an exceptionally fast, easy, and safe solution for backing up our family's digital photos and videos.

Perfect Storage device for Home Network
It's perfect external storage for home network. I have 1 desktop and 2 notebook pcs, and I share this drive (I have 2 in fact) over network with my wireless router. It is extremely easy to share pictures and video files between different computers even without all of them powered at the same time.
