Enjoy your digital music, photos, and videos throughout your home! The Linksys Media Hub stores your favorite media files, and lets you view and listen to them on any PC, laptop, or TV¹ in the house, or through the Internet anywhere in the world! The pre-installed hard drive holds thousands of photos or songs, or hundreds of hours of DVD quality video, and the empty second drive bay and two USB ports let you add even more storage as your collection grows. The Media Hub presents your music, photo, and video collections in an attractive "catalog view" from most web browsers. There are no confusing network addresses to remember; give your Media Hub a personalized "name" (i.e., "Smith-Media"), and just type it into your browser to view the catalog. Use the same name to log in to your Media Hub from a web browser anywhere, and get the same easy-to-use access to your media.³

Good little NAS.:
This is an excellent home NAS device. Dirt simple to install. It came with NTI's Shadow 3.0 backup software for Windows. Linksys should really bundle Shadow 4.0 with the unit. 4.0 has significant improvements over 3.0 that minimize the backup time. I upgraded for $20, which essentially increased the total cost for the whole unit. But it's still a reasonably economical way to create a large, shared storage capability for backups and shared multi-media files.
We would not have bought one....:
We were given this product as a gift (an important disclosure), and as such, we do not have too much stake in the ownership of it, if at all. Having set it up and used it, we can say that we would not have spent this kind of money for this level of functionality. As some reviewers commented, it is really nothing but a glorified hard drive with fancy looks. It certainly isn't worth the price that this product commands. This media hub does appear to do what it promises, which is a good thing. The setup... more info
Glorified Hard disk:
The Media Hub is but a glorified hard disk and expensive as such. You can't access the files from the build-in display. The USB connection in the back is a Standard A instead of the usual Standard B, really silly because it prevents you from connecting it to The PC,players and TV using a standard USB cable. The support from Linksys is horrible; I search for the NHM 410 and they only recognized the model 300. Some good advise; do not download the latest firmware updates, wait until Cisco gets it fixed.
