Best NAS drive?

I am looking to buy a NAS drive for backup and maybe network usage purposes.

I am needing a drive that has space for two 3.5" HDD's.

Anyone with experience with this?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Personally unless you're going to spend $500+ on a good NAS I wouldn't bother. I would buy a server instead. Reason being is low end NAS devices are limited on their speeds and software. Their speeds are limited by their hardware and their software is often clunky and not very user friendly.

To answer your question, I would look at the two bay NAS devices made by Netgear, D-Link, and Drobo. If you don't really care about speeds and just want a backup solution then the low end devices will work fine.
