NAS devices aren't exciting in the physical sense, just like backup is one of those topics that nobody ever really wants to talk about. I can't say the Central is an exciting gadget in that context, but it's certainly a mostly functional one as long as yo...
The Seagate Central is fast, easy to use, and comes with many options for media streaming, both locally and via the Internet
