I'm being asked on a list about accessable nas hardware and software. I am being told that the synoligy interface is a bit more clunky than it used to be. Example the back button is not visible to screen readers apparently. Are ther other ulternatives that are more accessible for now? thanks.

There's also the question of is it worth screwing around with NAS software, or is it easier to just put Linux on something with a bunch of drives connected and set up a raid array with LVM or something. Personally I would just connect a bunch of drives, make the physical volume span all the disks you want, and abstract your partitions via logical volumes to make it easier.

If you're using a NAS you're using Linux or a BSD varient. More commonly Linux though. Their pretty little graphical tool you access through the web is probably just abstracting away the fact that it's either doing LVM or using filesystem specific rade features.
