At the end of the day, the convenience provided by network-attached storage (NAS) devices is unparalleled. Buffalo's LinkStation EZ is a great product for those looking for an entry-level NAS. The capacious 500 GB unit should satisfy most users. Also, installation is extremely simple.

Some organizations-or people-need serious storage. Sometimes a simple server running Windows 2003 or Linux might not be sufficient, in terms of storage space, redundancy, or cost for all of these. The Buffalo TeraStation Pro II series of network-attached storage devices aims to please users and administrators who need a large amount of redundant storage, automatic backups to other units, gigabit networking, and the ability to increase the capacity. ThinkComputers takes a look at the one terabyte rackmount version in this review.

When it comes to portable hard drives, we don't normally think of a large four legged animal that resembles a wooly ox to be one of the usual suspects. Questionable tech company naming aside, Buffalo has been around since 1975 and provides a wide range of wireless networking products. The Japanese based company also creates a range of storage, memory and multimedia devices. Buffalo sent along their MiniStation 320GB TurboUSB Portable Hard Drive, a portable hard drive that features a shock proof enclosure and a utility that boosts performance up to 64% over standard 4200 RPM drives. Let's check it out!

Buffalo's routers have always wowed this writer, especially the WHR-G54S. However, this time around, Buffalo sent ThinkComputers a different kind of networking product: the LinkStation, Buffalo's foray into the network-attached storage device market. Buffalo markets the LinkStation EZ to the home user and touts its easy setup and backup software. ThinkComputers investigates.

The Buffalo 320GB MiniStation is an excellent bus powered drive that delivers great speed and easy to use backup software. The only drawback is the high price, but that has always come with increased performance.

DDR3 has emerged on the scene, creating a fire sale in DDR2 chips. One of those kits belongs to Buffalo, a company oft overshadowed in the enthusiast RAM market, and today HardwareLogic looks at the Buffalo Firestix DDR2-1000. Will this kit make us rethink whose memory we will buy on the next purchase?

The FireStix had no issues surpassing PC2-8000 frequencies at timings much tighter than the SPD defaults. At their default timings, they could be overclocked by a very impressive 42.5 percent or 340MHz. There are not many PC2-6400 5-5-5 kits able to run at super tight 3-3-3 timings, either.

The Buffalo LinkStation Live is a NAS drive that supports iTunes,. Avoid this product at all costs - for now at least.

There has been a mass of controversy surrounding the draft 802.11n standard but the fact that the mighty Cisco has recently announced support will give it a huge boost in acceptance for business use. Note that the WZR-AG300NH is only draft 1.0 compliant but it is offering a veritable feast of wireless features. However, this router is comparatively expensive so unless you really feel the 802.11a support is of benefit then consider D-Link's DIR-655 as this offers a lot more features and equally good performance for a lot less hard cash.

The presence of DDR3 memory in the market has a lot of people wondering if DDR2 is already on its way out. The answer to that is no, not even close. DDR2 memory has really stretched the limits of what SDRAM can do over Jedec standards. With many modules running at well over the specified 1.8v, such as these Buffalo PC2-9600 modules at 2.3v, DDR2 has surpassed what many of us would have thought the performance to ever be with DDR2.

Buffalo Technology has traditionally been a big player in the entry-level NAS appliance market thanks to its TeraStation products. The TeraStation Pro impressed with its excellent range of features and tempting price tag and now we take a look at the TeraStation Pro II, which aims to improve on the performance of its predecessor.

So, today I'm looking at Buffalo's take on the network media player, the LinkTheater Wireless A&G. At around £150, it is £50 less than the AppleTV and far cheaper than a fully fledged Media Center but you do get what you pay for with reduced functionality and connectivity. The big question is whether the right compromises have been made.

The FireStix range in bus speeds from 800MHz up to 1066. This range totally covers those that have decided to utilize an AMD or Intel processor. With its flaming red heat spreaders and high capacities, the FireStix is sure to please. So, let's now take a set of FSX800D2C-K1G for a test ride.
