Pogoplug Series 4 review: Pogoplug Series 4

Pogoplug Series 4

Pogoplug Series 4

I bought this expecting a really easy way of sharing my drives on my network, and having access anywhere I went. You know, what it advertises it does. It worked fine for maybe an hour or so, and then some of the drives went to sleep. From that point on...
