Thecus debuts N3200 Pro NAS: now with more AMD Geode CPU

Thecus Technology has retooled the N3200 and come up with the aptly named N3200 Pro — a brand new NAS now featuring an AMD Geode CPU.

Photo, iTunes and DLNA-compatible server options as well as browser-based management should assist users with the “digital lifestyle,” while a feature called “Web Surveillance Server” allows you to take regularly scheduled photographs just by plugging in a USB webcam… which is interesting in a vaguely creepy way. No word on price or availability but the previous N3200 sells for $339.

It seems as if Huawei would rather hold tight to its mobile devices unit than sell it for less than it’s worth, as evidenced by the sudden postponement of its auction last week. The Chinese telecom giant had cranked up the auction back in May in an attempt to generate cash and guidance for “navigating the North American market,” but given the current economic situation, it reckons it’s better off waiting for more prosperous times given that it’s not in dire need of additional cash flow at the moment. We suspect Kenny Rogers said it best, and apparently, Huawei really does know when to hold ‘em.

LaCie intros 5big Network drive array to RAID junkies the world over

The LaCie product roof has been raised to 7.5TB with the new 5big Network — an Active Directory and gigabit Ethernet-friendly array of storage drives that supports several RAID configurations for up to five hot-swappable hard drives. You can try it on in four different sizes — 2.5TB for $899.99, 5TB for $1,399, or the aforementioned, bar-raising 7.5TB for $1,899. In keeping with his sixteen year relationship with LaCie, the renowned Neil Poulton applied his HAL 9000-inspired design to the product, winning him another Janus de L’industrie award. The only problem with the HAL motif: you really, really don’t want your RAID storage device to drone on about how its “mind is going, Dave.”

Brain HD media server

Blusens hit the scene in a big way last October, but for whatever reason, we haven’t heard from ‘em since… until now, that is. The Blu:Brain Home Entertainment Device features a somewhat misleading name, as there’s (regrettably) no built-in Blu-ray drive to speak of. What it does have, however, is a remarkably sexy shell, twin digital TV tuners (DVB-T), a removable internal hard drive, Ethernet / WiFi connectivity and a USB port. Essentially, this here box can serve up all sorts of multimedia (high-def content included) via HDMI, though word on the street says it won’t even be available to order until 2009.
