Network Attached Storage Help? plz?

I am currently using a iomega 150d NAS and this is old and has become slow.

I am looking for a replacement but i do not know much about NAS as I am working in a small office and i did not purchase the old 1.

I am looking for a fast and reliable device that will be holding upto 2tb of important company data.

I have been asked to do some research on these devices and determine the best replacement for the company, but because i have not had any experience with NAS can anybody please suggest some devices and links to reviews and website if possible.

I have a budget of around £800.

Thanks for the help in anticipation.

    you could look at Drobo

    or for a much more inexpensive option you could build a pc with a raid card and your own harddrives and use an operating system called FreeNAS my home file server that way only cost about $400

    FreeNAS could run on any P4 with a gig of ram so you could pick up a cheap dell or hp or lenovo and get a SATA raid card or use software raid. could cost you less than $100
