I have the N54L - it's pretty ok, it's silent. But it's absolutely not fast and also wasn't really back when I bought it :P

I always suspected mine must be faulty since it was so loud. You could swap the power supply to something else but that was quite costly and left you with a sea of wires sticking out of your otherwise very smart case.

I have been running an N36L with FreeNAS for 7 years now. I don't keep it running all the time, so it's not really a "NAS" anymore, but more of a backup system since I configured the disks to use RAID-Z.
