Back in April people marveled at the $699 LinkStation Mini (LS-WS1.0TGL/R1) dual 2.5-inch hard drive (configurable to RAID 0 /1), DLNA compatible, NAS server that fit in the palm of your hand. Now the company has taken the product up a notch with the LS-WSS240GL/R1 (currently only available in Japan) and has swapped the standard notebook drives for dual 120GB (240GB total) Solid State Drives (SSD) to produce an insanely quiet 2.3db unit. Buffalo has also given the new LinkStation Mini iPhone and iPod touch remote access support, Mac Time Machine support, and the ability for users to upload media files directly to the unit via USB without a PC. Sounds good, right? Well, the new model is going to cost you $1,200 – if you’re able to get a hold of one. Worth it? I’m guessing: No. [via]
