Nice unit, only one real gripe...
The single most important thing, from a noise standpoint, with any NAS device is to USE QUIET DRIVES! Naturally, consider reliability and durability as well (remember, these drives are going to do a lot of thrashing, especially when you're first loading everything in).
I've had excellent results with the Western Digital 'Enterprise' class SATA drives (yellow/black label, says 'Enterprise' or something similar right on it). I loaded this unit up with four of them, in a RAID-5 configuration (which the unit thoughtfully applied, all on its own) and neither myself nor my wife can even hear the thing running.
Now, the one and only gripe I have about this unit: The last/latest firmware Netgear has for it (5.3.11) does not, apparently, support being part of an Active Directory domain DESPITE the presence of Active Directory options present in its config menus.
Granted, this is a very minor quibble. It certainly will not affect the unit's ability to stream or do anything else a typical user might ask of it. This is a point of concern mainly for the heavy-duty techies (like me) who run an in-house server farm and find it convenient to authenticate everything against AD. Since this unit won't do so, I found myself having to set up a few more local user accounts within the NAS itself, easily done with its web interface.
Other than that, great unit for the budget-minded! You'd be spending at least $600-$800 for a comparable current-production/new unit.
