LaCie has outed its latest external hard-drive, the Wireless Space, and while the Neil Poulton designed 1TB and 2TB drives may look a lot like the company?s other blocky models, inside there?s a whole lot of wireless goodness simmering away. The LaCie Wireless Space is a combination NAS, gigabit ethernet and WiFi b/g/n router, media server and network extender.
On the back there are three gigabit ethernet ports ? which will work as a switch ? and an upstream gigabit port, together with a pair of USB 2.0 ports for hooking up external drives or printers. Another USB 2.0 port is on the opposite edge, while inside there?s 2.4GHz single-band WiFi b/g/n and either a 1TB or 2TB hard-drive.
Media ? whether photos, audio or video ? loaded onto the Wireless Space can be shared easily using UPnP or DLNA, and Mac users can set it up with Time Machine as if it actually were a Time Capsule; it?ll function as an iTunes library, too.
