http://www.mpcclub.com/forum/images/newspic/logo_synology.jpg After Synology pushed back several times the release of the DiskStation Manager 3.0 Beta, it is now officially available. Synology is one of the top NAS manufacturers for home and business end-users. The value of their products does not come only from their low power consumption hardware but also the features which are updated on a regular basis. See for yourself and if you do not have the chance to have a Synology NAS or would like to postpone the upgrade until the final release is available, you may just access the Beta on-line (http://www.synology.com/enu/products/demo/index.php).
