Overall we liked what we got with the QNAP HS-251 but it does come with a hefty price tag. Without disks we found it selling for £380 (around $595, AU$690) and if you add in the cost of the two 4TB disks that rises to something around the £650 mark ($1,02... |

What is the QNAP HS-251? This is QNAP's big pitch to be part of your living room. A two-bay NAS which looks like it belongs beside your Blu-ray player or cable box, packs a wealth of media functionality, HDMI and no fan for silent operation. It all looks...

QNAP has dared to do something different and largely succeeded. The HS-251 looks good, is fast enough for its media centric purpose, fits in nicely under the TV and has integrated HDMI to directly connect to your TV. The problem is it is far more expensiv... |

To put it simply, we're huge fans of the QNAP HS-251 Silent NAS. The original HS-210 concept was brave, innovative and looked fabulous but was let down by sluggish internals. That issue has been addressed with the HS-251 which is blessed with more power a... |
