I'm trying to hunt around to replace my Buffalo Linkstation, I need something thats Mac friendly and supports Time Machine.
I've looked at Apples Time Capsule, but the reviews I've read say it only lasts about 17 months... Not very promising! (Although it wouldn't be acting as a router, just a storage device)
I've looked into Western Digital and also Buffalo Linkstation but I'm not sure on either! Idealy a Print server built in would be good!
Has anyone got anything like this in their network?

Im thinking about going maybe with a RAID system... Drobo is way to expensive, I've always had faith in Western Digital though?
How much data are you looking to have? You could buy a cheap chasis off ebay or something and buy the disks yourself, if you have a CES store in your city, have a look in there for drives. Thats what I would do (and plan to soon when I have the cash).
