Sounds like a classic problem where you have three requirements...
1. "Just works" / off-the-shelf, no management required 2. Quality & reliabilty 3. Low cost
...but can only choose two. :)
Just from reading user reviews of the low cost stuff, it sounds like you sacrifice quality & reliability for ease-of-use & convenience. But even those features are suspect, if the reviews are to be believed.
Just my $0.02 :)
