im after a NAS to put on my network, basically i am minimising storage in my main system and would like to have my data externally

i currently use an old rig of mine as a file server in my shed its noisy and old and uses too much power

ideally i want something low power that can do a bit of downloading and has all the key features, ideally i dont want to spend over £100.

i have been looking at western digital green drives for the storage

the two key contenders are:

Edimax NS-2502 2-Bay Gigabit NAS Enclosure

Synology Disk Station DS109j Gigabit Ethernet NAS Enclosure

obviously the edimax has the advantage of RAID1 which could be useful as it will primarily be used for data backup

but the synology seems to have more features

which one would be the best choice?
