Inexpensive But Unreliable:

A Review of the Micronet MDN1000 Fantom Drives G-Force MegaDisk NAS
With a name like that, how can you go wrong? Well, I've now owned two of these little NASs within the span of one year, and I'm about to get a third one, but I haven't had multiple copies because I like this thing...
My first unit was broken right out of the box; its networking hardware was faulty. How I wish that I had simply returned the MDN1000 for a refund rather than doing what I did, which was to get a replacement.

When I first fired it up, I chose to reconfigure the drives from the default 1 TB to the mirrored configuration, which requires the drives to be reformatted. That... more info

I had high hopes:

In October 2007 was in the market for an inexpensive solution to store a large collection of documents, ebooks and family digital photos. This unit looked interesting and was the right price, so I bought it with my fingers crossed. It performed this task laudably for a few months until the fan got very noisy and started to have intermittent problems spinning up to dissipate the heat.
Hoping to head off problems, I put in a request at Fantom's tech support site to ask if they would like to send just a... more info
