Good stuff

QNAP TS-251 2-Bay Personal Cloud NAS, Intel 2.41GHz Dual Core CPU with Media Transcoding (TS-251-US)

Pros: fast reliable good value

Cons: minor gripe - plastic case

Overall Review: This is the 2nd QNAP NAS I've owned (the 1st is a TS-410 that's still in use). This one, like the 1st, is proving to be another great product from QNAP with rock solid reliability. I use both units as NVR's with two cameras hung off each. With services duplicated on both units I can easily max out the older unit's CPU resources by scheduling a scan job, but this new one's CPU utilization can barely be dented no matter what I throw at it, it's very fast. I haven't tried the HDstation yet but looking forward to exploring this feature.

Pros: Works good.

Cons: A little slow. Not plug and play. Requires DHCP server, can't assign it IP addresses.

Overall Review: Needs multipule ip address for single drive, more if two drives are installed.
