Storage Central provides fail-safe, sharable disk storage for everyone in your network. Users can easily store, share, and back up all of their music, photos, videos, and data files. Add still more storage by plugging in two IDE drives of any size from 80 gigabyte to 1 terabyte, from any vendor; double or even triple that capacity by adding a second or third Storage Central. Share your files or keep them private, and automatically make duplicate copies if desired. Z-SAN (Storage Area Network) technology enables centralized storage to be shared across multiple networked PCs. More disk storage, for more flexibility!

Not really a review - but if you are intending to set up a mirror - it's a good idea NOT to use two identical drives - they could both be from the same batch and could both fail within hours of each other. I would suggest deliberately buying good quality drives from different manufacturers but of the same capacity.
Had this product a year now, worked very reliably. Access can be a little slow, esp on lots of small files, but I didnt buy it for access speeds, I bought it for storage.
Warning however, just upgraded to Vista on one of my machines and it does not work with it, Netgear support say driver available first HALF of 2007.... so could be in for a long weight before my vista pc can access it again :o(
Unpacked sc101 from box,connected to mains and wireless network installed sotware all in a matter of 10 minutes. Had two hard drives to slot into the sc101. This was quite easy to do as cables were ready and waiting to be connected. Software made it easy to partition drive and customise for mirror imaging if required
