Excellent storage device. I back up nightly all the hard drives in three computers to this device. The initial backup for each computer is slow but this is normal considering that you are backing up the entire drive across the network. After the initial backup, it becomes a fast process. Highly recommend this product as both a backup device and source of additional storage. Note there is two 6T drives so the data is on both drives so if one drive does fail you do not lose your back because you have it on the other 6T drive.

Super fast with 10G, 2.5G and 10 bay. Sodimm ram is installable. I added 8GB sodimm ram(ADATA) Very quiet. Small in size but excellent in performance

Great product -Synology 10Gb

Quick & Easy to Setup Super Quite

Asustor made expanding their NAS servers as easy as possible. Insert drives, connect power and USB, configure through ADM, done. I was not expecting the performance of drives in the expansion unit to match those in the main NAS itself. When connected to an AS6202T, there was absolutely no difference in throughput for equivalent drives in the expansion unit in either JBOD or RAID 1 operation. This was with both network adapters connected and either a single workstation hammering the NAS through a 10GbE link or multiple machines active at once. When I connected the AS6004U expansion unit to an AS6210T having quad 1GbE adapters enabled, I again saw no difference in transfer speeds in JBOD or RAID 1 mode vs. drives in the main enclosure, but there was a measurable (10-30%) reduction in speed accessing a RAID 10 array of 7200K drives. Not bad performance - Asustor is making the most of their USB 3 connection. The expansion itself unit stays quiet even under load when the fan is set to Auto. Swapping the expander between NAS head units was possible, although ADM complained and maintaining existing arrays takes work. If you are only connecting to a single NAS, that's a non-issue.

I bought this really just to create some shared storage on our home network. It does a great job; so easy to set up and use...almost fool-proof. The OS is simple, and you can run all sorts of apps on it. I installed 4 drives and was up and running in about an hour. After playing around with it, I found this little NAS could do so much more than just share disk space! The built-in app store is full of neat apps, and easy to install. I installed Plex server on and was surprised how well it did with streaming my media content. It worked great except when it came to live video encoding. So, I decided I needed a little more power, and I traded up and bought the next higher end version Asustor sells. It was easy to swap my drives from this box to the new one. I didn't lose anything, and the new box was almost instantly running since it got the configuration on the swapped drives. Newegg handled the return flawlessly and I'm really happy with the purchase.
