Seagate BlackArmor 440 Reviewed by Richard Vanderhurst
Beginning at $750 for 2TB, the Seagate BlackArmor 440 / 420 is most likely the most reasonable high-capacity, top of the range NAS server. A drawback to the BlackArmor is that its write speed could be better compared to its read speed. Note : The device is sold in 2TB, 4TB, and 6TB capacities. Now, you will need to provision your own drives to reach 8TBs, as Seagate hasn't released that model yet. Also, the NAS's high first price point, while not a difficulty for corporations, may stress most shopper's pocketbooks. Richard Vanderhurst discusses that Seagate advocates you only use its hard drives and only provides tech support when you use its hard drives, but both BlackArmor versions work with SATA hard drives from any seller.
