"SLOW but very worthwhile"
Pros: Works smoothly, very simple & effective.
Cons: SLOOWWWWW user interface, data transfer could be faster.
Summary: Wanted a simple but defective network storage device, which this does flawlessly. The unit has been rock-solid for the past year, worked perfectly, and automatically backs itself up to a USB drive.
The user interface is web-browser based and simple to use but painfully slow, literally taking minutes to load/reload/refresh pages. It's not as intuitive as it could be, but fine for someone with a solid computer knowledge.
The web-access to data is a great idea, very useful, but very slow.
Overall, it's a great NAS but could benefit from updating of the hardware.
