Ive been reading for awhile anonymously, and just created my account last night. I decided it was time to make it official. Lots of good info here. For those of you with Snap 4000 units, yes I know these units are not bleeding edge anymore, but for the average home user, that just wants a cheap 1TB NAS to store music, pictures, and other random program images, is it your opinion that these units do the job well?

Are you happy with your 4000, setting aside your exposure to enterprise units? For home use, on a 10/100 LAN with 2 or 3 computers, does it do the job well?

Ive seen the bandwidth tests, not achieving transfer of over 4.6 /sec, but for your average music stream, or backup of pics, is this really important?

Last question, what would you think the value of a 4000 unit would be that did not have upgraded hard drives? $40, $60, $100?
