In a quest to hook up new customers Open-E's offering up a free lite version of its Data Storage Solution (providing 2 TB of data and just online forum support) for the next week and a half. The free trial opportunity ends on January 31st.

You just download the software to a USB memory key and then you can morph any PC into a NAS--pretty neat. It's a great way to see whether Open-E's option is a good fit for your storage needs.
