NAS Recommendation

My desktop has kicked the bucket and, to be honest, I'm not too interested in replacing it. For the past year I've used my laptop pretty much exclusively anyways. What I will still need is a non-RAID network attached storage device on the cheap to store and stream media to my Xbox from. Any recommendations?

sorry dude, but this won't be a very helpful post. NAS is on the way out, so you should be able to get something for cheap, however, I'd hold out for a bit longer in anticipation of a solid state solution for the efficiency, speed and convenience. Would a 4GB usb pen drive bridge the gap, or is the streaming logic a must?

well, you're right about that fendah... can't find it now, but I read something about the end of the nas era in a white paper by HP but i reckon that might have someting to do with their purchase of lefthand networks, which creates competitive san products.
