I find images from Flickr slow to download and often get fed up before the image arrives sometimes have the same problem with PPG too. I like foliopic but only have the standard account and if I ever fill that I'll just delete old pics and upload new.

If buying a NAS it's worth looking for one that supports RAID arrays. I won't bother explaining the jargon but basically the data is spread across all the disks in the NAS array and if one disk fails no data is lost. You lose some overall storage capacity with this technology but gain hardware resilience. When the faulty disk is replaced the array rebuilds itself. RAID is used extensively on servers in data centres.
