is meeting some fierce competition from Promise this year.  The SmartStor is an all-in-one RAID5 controller with hot-swappable drives just like the Drobo, but it also includes a built-in NAS to share files over the network, and a BitTorrent client to boot.  It’s compatible with dlna, UPnP, and AMD Live! systems so sharing media is a breeze as well.

We talk with Alex Ling from Promise at Computex 2008 and he walks us through the SmartStor’s many features.

Here's how to get the show:
|Download| - iPod-formatted H.264

I want to see a review on this if it is good or better than drobo.

Me too.  I’d love to get my hands on one and put it through its paces.  With all the other features it’s kind of in a different class from the Drobo.  Cheaper too.

Hey, I love the new HD Compression, looks and acts better in iTunes. Please use this compression for the rest of your videos. Thanks.  Great stuff.

That’s the plan going forward - Apple TV version is now published at 720p, using H.264 at 2mbit.

Will it support Time Machine?
