N/A 5/4/2012 5:16:50 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5Just OK Pros: -Decent value of the storage you get (3TB of disk-failure-protected RAID1 storage; 6TB of non-protected RAID0 storage) -It's a NAS Cons: -HORRENDOUSLY SLOW (average between 2-5Mbps over a 1Gb LAN) -Disks are loud -Using it as a media server is completely unreliable, rendering the feature useless -Admin web interface is clunky and lacks many useful features -Help documentation is incomplete and missing lots of useful information and instructions -Power button feels cheap and performance is poor (you have to hit a "sweet spot" for it to work) Other Thoughts: Since this NAS was available at a very fair price I gave it the benefit of the doubt, despite poor online reviews. I use it daily and, besides the media server feature, it works for what I need it for (albeit at a very slow pace). I would highly recommend researching other NAS devices before settling for this one. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
J 6/29/2011 6:46:33 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5Do Not Buy Pros: 6TB of storage for a relatively low price. Cons: It doesn't work very well with Active Directory as advertised, and Seagate support is next to useless. After only a few months in use we have started getting "Thermal Shutdown" issues. The device is in a temperature controlled server room with unrestricted airflow on each side, with even the vast bulk of the bottom exposed. After it shut itself down the last time, I can no longer connect via Windows Shares. It simply says the password is wrong. The interface is clunky and annoying to use. I don't suggest anyone buy this. Take the money and build an Atom based NAS and save yourself the headache. Other Thoughts: We called Seagate support to help with the Active Directory integration since there is nothing that explicitly mentions AD in the interface. After the "technician" told us that a .local extension wasn't a FQDN, even for an internal domain, we decided we were on our own. I wouldn't even give it 1 Egg if not required to. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
bh 4/16/2011 11:09:21 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5	Rating: 1/5Horribly Slow Pros: 3TB of mirrored space on a NAS. Cons: - Extremely slow. Upgraded firmware. - (auto-firmware update didn't work, needed to do manually). Still extremely slow. (3MB/sec). I have a Linux unit on the same subnet same switch and I can get 30MB/sec on that unit but this is a TENTH the speed. - Makes bizarre thumping noises. - Auto discovery didn't work, had to see what address it used form the DHCP server. Lame discover tool doesn't work. Other Thoughts: Junk. This unit has to go back. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 1/21/2011 6:48:00 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 1/5	Rating: 3/5Be careful to understand licenses Pros: Client system backup, Bare Metal Restore over network; Local backup (USB device to NAS, NAS to USB device); NAS to NAS backup Cons: none so far. Other Thoughts: BlackArmor devices include 5 licenses of their Windows backup software. To get support for the 20 computers, you'll have to buy Additional License 5-Pack at $100/pack. So that would be $300.00 addition dollars to support the 20 computers. 7 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
