NAS Synology or WD or TC
Hello,
I want to have an online hard disk to access my files from anywhere and from both Windows and Mac computers and also use Time Machine with it.
1. Synology USB Station: 85euros

I know it works with mac and TM, but does it support mac formatted drives?
2. Western Digital Live 2TB: 145euros
http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=280
I know it works with mac and TM, but can it be formatted in mac file system? Also no USB there
3. Time Capsule 2TB: 245euros

Even the 5th generation model. Very expensive and will not support NTFS system. Is that a problem? Are those windows software that make pc's read mac format ok?
What is the most reliable choice? Maybe something else? I was advised not to trust very cheap devices but on the other hand I don't need to spend much money on something that is "luxury" (I mean having an online disk).
Thank you,
Nikos
