Installation comparison:
Then:
Adding drive space generally included reconfiguring the operating system along with the hardware, restoring all data, verifying security, training administrators, granting rights -- basically whatever was needed to make it easy for my clients to use and understand what they had. If the existing system would not support more drives, then an additional file server, operating system, and the infrastructure to support it, had to be added -- and installed by a network engineer.
Now:
* Remove device from box.
* Plug it into your Microsoft Windows network
* Use the 8 GB of shared storage.
Does it work?
My home network consists of one Windows 95 and four Windows 98 systems, and all were able to connect to this drive immediately after I plugged it in. Netgear also supplies client software to make using this drive more convenient, but the software is not required.
Today technology moves so quickly that new equipment will be out dated within days, if not immediately. That does not negate the value of a simplified solution to add 8 GB of disk space to a network, and all without the aid of a network specialist.
Why add space:
* Burning CD ROMS requires sufficient disk space to create the temporary files before actually blasting the data onto a nifty CD that fits into a briefcase.
* Back up files -- by simply using Windows Explorer anyone can make a copy of their critical data on this network drive. I lost digital pictures from my system, but, fortunately, they existed on this drive as well.
* Sharing files without having your personal system accessed by others.
* Mapping (telling your system where to look) is easy. This drive could be drive M for "more," N for "Netgear" or any drive letter that is available. It is virtually part of your computer.
Access speed: I had no problems accessing and using this across a 10 mbps, 10BASET network. If you access this from a wireless platform, it still works fine, but at approximately 2 mbps, which is faster than DSL or a T-1 line.
Star quality:
Saving my data, providing space for storage and temp files, turning my 6 GB drive into a 14 GB drive with plug and play technology, and never once failing since I installed it rates this addition as five stars all the way.

The marvels of today's modern technology include the development of a
soda can, when discarded will last forever ... and a $7,000 car which
when properly cared for will rust out in two or three years.
Most of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do,
and how to be, I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the
graduate school mountain but there in the sandbox at nursery school.
These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't
hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt someone.
Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good
for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint
and sing and dance and play and work some every day.
Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for
traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the
little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and
nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and
hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup -- they all
die. So do we.
And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you
learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK. Everything you need to know is in
there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation. Ecology and
politics and sane living.
Think of what a better world it would be if we all -- the whole world
-- had cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with
our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other
nations to always put things back where we found them and cleaned up our own
messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into
the world it is best to hold hands and stick together.
-- Robert Fulghum, "All I ever really needed to know I learned
in kindergarten"
