Oh, those.

It would be really annoying to buy a home NAS and find it doesn't
support NFS locks or SMB oplocks.  NASes are vaguely useful for more
than one computer in the house at the same time.

That said, I bought a big, expensive one, found it far too slow for my
needs, send it back for a refund and bought a portable cheap USB disk
which had *so* much higher performance.  The convenience of serving
multiple machines just wasn't worth the lousy performance.
