ICS with home NAS

Hi

I am using ICS on my HTC One X and I am looking at buying a Nexus 7.

I am looking at buying NAS that will work well with my android devices and my iPad 3 and also Windows PC, can anyone recommend anything?

Requirements:

Raid 1
ACL
Android / iPad App to allow access from web
Easy backup to external HDD, can be USB or over the network
Low power consumption and wake on LAN
torrent client + iTunes media
 
You could look at an Iomega ix2-200. It would have pretty much everything you are looking for. I have one at home I use for media storage and it performs okay. It is not the speediest of drives and I think the default RAID1 configuration drags down performance. Two other cons would be that it is rather noisy when the drives are being read or written to, so you may want to keep it away from quiet areas. Mine is in my basement.

The second thing, and my biggest complaint with the unit is the temperature to control the internal fan is not user configurable. The fan will only come on when the unit reaches 60
 
Thanks for feedback lunatic59, how are you accessing it from the web?

I saw the QNAP TS-210 which also has native app for android, has anyone used this one or anything for QNAP?
