Andy, I am not a hardware person and don't play one on TV. I am under
the impression that NAS has a processor in it and is a network attached
device where an external hard drive is attached directly to a computer.
The only thing I was passing on was that my IT guy looks for an external
drive first when troubleshooting freezing up.
Thanks,
Jeff

I had a customer computer freezing up. After boot up, it took about
one minute to freeze. I took it to my IT guy and on the bench it
checked out fine. The only difference was that there was no WD
Mybook connected on the bench. He said you should have told me
that and I could have saved you a trip to the shop. He says the
first thing he looks at in a situation like this is an external
hard drive. He also said that if you swap external drives about
every two weeks you will not experience this. The computer is back
in its spot and working great.
