I ended up bought a NAS, and throw in two HD and set RAID 1 so that I won't worry about losing data. RAID 1 requires two hard drives, they both have same files (Mirrored) on it meaning if one fails, other will still have files for me to retrieve.

Cool.. I just want to plug in multi-function printer and forget it so that my wife and family can use it anytime without holler me to get dedicated system up and running for printer.
