Buffalo Technology LinkStation Pro Duo
The Buffalo Technology LinkStation Pro Duo is a portable Network-Storage Device featuring dual 2.5” HDDs. A step up from the compact/lightweight LinkStation Mini, it supports RAID 0 (Stripping w/Redundancy), RAID 1 (Mirrowing), AND JBOD (Separate Drive Letters). Like its predecessor, it connects via 10/100/1000 Ethernet or USB 2.0 to PCs, Macintoshes, and DLNA media players. Included with the device is Web Access, which allows a third-party to access stored files via a simple HTTP link from anywhere, anytime—even from an iPhone. The LinkStation Pro Duo also hosts Active Directory Support, Memo AutoBackup Software, and a built-in DLNA CERTIFIED server.
