Introduction

With the recent popularity of Network Attached Storage (NAS) it should come as no surprise to see a company finally come up with a device that that can provide a shared RAID array and also include a media server, ftp server and the ability to stream video and audio files as well as mount ISO files. The device we are describing is the Thecus 3800 Total Media Storage and Playback Device.

The M3800 is your total media storage and playback solution. Featuring HDMI, component, and AV out, the M3800 can play digital content directly through your existing home theater system. The M3800 supports multiple file formats including WMV9 and VC-1, and even supports 1080P for playback on today's high-definition displays. What's more, with the included remote control, you can enjoy movies, music, photos and more from the comfort of your living room couch.

When it comes to home application oriented features the M3800 is perfect for the home. Its Media Server allows easy connections to DLNA-compatible devices. The iTunes® Server offers music streaming throughout the entire home, while the Photo Web Server enables users to share their precious photos anywhere on the network. With the M3800, the digital lifestyle can be fully realized.
