WD Red Plus 2TB NAS Hard Disk Drive - 5400 RPM Class SATA 6Gb/s, CMR, 64MB Cache, 3.5 Inch - WD20EFRX

Pros: I bought 6 of these drives in March of '13 for a freenas system I built. They have been running 24/7/365 without an issue. I am more than pleased by these drives

Cons: STILL none

Works Like a Champ

NETGEAR WNDR3700-100NAS V.5 Wireless Gigabit Open Source Router/ USB port Rangemax 2.4/5 GHz Simultaneous N600 Dual Band IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n, IEEE 802.3/3u/3ab

Pros: Reliable! I've had this for about 2 years now and have never had a problem with it. I have since flashed dd-wrt build 17201 on it and it performs flawlessly. I just rebooted it after 2 months of constant use, not because I had to but because I only had 10MB of ram left available. I have this set up to VPN to other wndr3700 boxes at my brothers house and my dads house and it works without a hitch. We're all basically sharing one network. The only time this thing needs a reboot is when I change some settings. The 2.4Ghz range is excellent, and with dd-wrt you can customize and tweak it for the environment you live in. The 5Ghz could use a little more range, but that is a limitation of the frequency, not the device. So far anything I throw at this thing it will run without issue. I'm talking about all of the optware packages that are available once you upgrade the firmware. I can't say enough good things about this device.

Cons: it would be even better if it came preloaded with dd-wrt

Overall Review: I would (and have) recommended this router to anyone who has the need for speed and reliability.

Very Satisfied

Pros: Blazing speeds. Reliable connections. I had a linksys router and thought that rebooting the router once or twice a week was just what you had to do. Then I got this, the only time I reboot is when I'm messing with the settings

Cons: It can't magically increase my internet speed

Overall Review: I flashed dd-wrt on this so I could create a vpn for my network. Wish it had vpn support built in but dd-wrt makes a great product even better. Over a year owning this and I would recommend it to anyone.
