Tara: Hi. I'm Tara, and I'm here in the Crutchfield video studio today to talk about Linksys® by Cisco Media Hubs. Now, a media hub is a really convenient place to store all of your files on your home network, and these Cisco hubs take it a step further. They're really easy to use. In fact, once you connect them to your home network, they automatically find and transfer music, photos, and videos from any connected computer. They also automatically back up your files.

Now they come in a 500GB and 1TB model, which is really ample storage for most people. And each one features an empty drive bay so you can add even more storage if you need it. They each have a memory card reader and two USB ports, so you can quickly transfer files directly to the hubs without turning on a computer.

Since they're connected to your network, they're really a great place to store music files that you might want to use in a wireless audio system or access from so other kind of connected device. And finally, they feature remote access. So let's say, for example, you live in New York but you're on a business trip in San Francisco, and you want to play your music files that are stored on one of these hubs back at your house. You can do that, and Cisco offers this service free for the first year. To learn more visit crutchfield.com/ciscohubs or call us at 1-800-555-9408.
