rate themselves from the competition. For
example, their first system acted as an all-
in-one media player and storage device, but
after roughly 10 months on the market they
realized that it “wasn’t going to fly” as a stor-
age device, so they ended up creating a sepa-
rate unit for that purpose.
“Now we have the HUB − a NAS (Network
Attached Storage) that’s more than just a
‘dumb’ storage device,” says Larry. “Most
NAS devices just store and serve media, but
ours has proprietary intelligence built into
it that allows it to do many things that a
standalone NAS normally doesn’t do.” The
Hub comes in two variations − the DHUB
(Desktop) Series and the RHUB (Rack-
mount) Series.
Complimenting the HUB are the media
players. These also come in two series − the
DPLAY (Desktop) Series and the RPLAY
(Rackmount) Series − which work synergis-
tically with the HUB to generate a “much
faster and much more stable system than
anything on the market.”
They have also recently added the UPLAY
Universal Player to their product line, which
allows users to just replace the players in
their current media systems without having
to purchase an entirely new storage system
