This Single-Bay NAS is Your Perfect First Networked Drive

Synology NAS boxes accounted for three of the five Lifehacker nominations for best NAS, and their single-drive diskless model is cheaper than ever right now. A single drive NAS obviously won't have the redundancy or RAID options you'd get from most models, but if you just want a basic shared drive for your home network, it's a fantastic deal. [Synology America DiskStation 1-Bay Network Attached Storage, $99]

Don't forget to pick up a NAS-optimized WD Red drive to stick in there, while you're at it.
