“Cons:
Not a high-end network storage device, only boasting average
transfer speed. Not all the built-in features are
Linux-friendly

“A network drive serves two main purposes. One, it is a place to
store your files – plain and simple. When you are maxed out
on space on your PC, a network drive affords the extensive storage
required for advanced computing work, media files and backups. The
second main purpose: enhancing your digital life. More than just a
network drive, the Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive –
which is about the size of a male hand and styled with an
unassuming black enclosure – provides a wealth of powerful
and unusual digital media features, many of which work quite well
with Linux computers.”
