Hi,

Perhaps a slightly more informative response - you can find the pricing here:
https://dlink.ctera.com/ (click on the Pricing tab)

This is also where you can register for the free trial.

Regards,

After trying that link and checking the pricing, please refer to my previous post. ;)

It's too bad the pricing doesn't reflect what is offered by Carbonite or Mozy.

My point exactly.  It's twice the price and limited in capacity!

I agree with gunrunnerjohn. 
It is much more expensive than I am willing to pay, even though carbonite and others don't let you backup from a NAS drive.  I think I will pick up a 360GB portable drive that I saw for $59 the other day.

I did read somewhere on this forum perhaps in the Beta section when it was visible that there was an SDK coming for the 323 to build add-ons. 
Hopefully someone will seize the opportunity to build an app for affordable backup.

In the meantime Ken you should check out the two places Gunrunner mentioned.  If you spent your $ on an internal drive you can have local and off site backup fairly inexpensively.  I currently have about 700 gb backed up on Mozy for a grand total of $5 a month.

The pricing doesn't show in my region (UK), but instead directs you to another page. Would someone be kind enough to copy and paste the US pricing for me? IT gives me an idea of what it might cost once it gets here.

Thanks :)

Thanks. That's bordering on affordable. 1TB for $99 a year would be a good price though ;)
