Description
ncix.com This NAS is designed by Neil Poulton. It's black, glossy, and it will look great on your desk. LaCie also advertises pretty decent read/write speeds for storing your data, and it works as an iTunes server.
The video opens with Linus presenting the LaCie Network Space 2, a NAS designed by Neil Poulton. He emphasizes the black glossy rectangular design and points out the device’s claimed capabilities, such as torrent downloads, media streaming, and up to 65 megabytes per second Ethernet throughput, along with USB 2.0 connectivity. The host then unpacks the box contents, highlighting the included items: a surprisingly sturdy foam packaging, a fast looking Ethernet cable, a USB A to B cable, power adapters for multiple regions, and a Network Space 2 quick install guide with a section of the setup utilities on a CD or DVD. He notes the device’s physical features like the rubberized feet for stability, the single USB port for direct USB drive or printer use, and the power input alongside the Ethernet and USB 2.0 ports. Throughout the unboxing, Linus tests the packaging integrity and comments on the international power adapters, appreciating the device’s travel-friendly regional options. Finally, he previews the setup process, mentions the iTunes server and remote access features, and teases a live test to verify the claimed 65 MB/s throughput. The second paragraph shifts to hands-on inspection, where the Network Space 2 is shown powered up, the front USB port is demonstrated, and the build quality is contrasted with the device’s glossy exterior. Linus ends by reiterating the practical use cases, such as centralizing data in a household, backing up files, and enabling easy access even when a computer is off, while noting the need to consult the supplied install guide and possibly the Ly website for updated utilities and firmware.
