Ok.

Currently i have 2 sata drives in my desktop PC holding my music, docs, pictures etc.

I want to start using my laptop more but the trouble is i dont have access to my files unless i turn my desktop on.

So im looking for some type of external raid system. I would like as many ports as possible in terms of connectivity. I would like Ethernet so i could connect it direct to my router if poss, Then i could use it as kind of a server. I also would like USB2 and if possible Sata or even E-sata to still connect to my desktop for really fast speed.

I cant find any that list ethernet and Sata. Is it because its not possible to have them together?

In terms of drives i need about 3 if possible. Im not sure i would run it as a raid system, Might have it as seperate drives for different media.

Your suggestions please as i cant see that aria do much of that stuff:mrgreen:

buy as network harddrive, stick everything on that and you can have access to it via wireless or lan.
