"Cute, but Active Directory feature's not too useful..."
Pros: Inexpensive, fairly easy to set up.
Cons: When using Active Directory, Tech Support tells us that "the device is happy around 25 users. outside of this issues can experienced."
Summary: We bought this, even though the advertising says it's a "small" NAS, because we were planning on using it as temporary storage for fairly small group of folks at work.
Unfortunately, after putting it on our domain, we can login with a domain user, but can't login as an administrator... that is, I can't get in and modify shares, etc.
After three calls to tech support, finally get one who asks how many users we have on Active Directory. I said about 300, he responds with "the device is happy around 25 users. outside of this issues can experienced."
And, of course, we discover this thirty-four days after purchase, so the Iomega store won't refund our purchase. Sigh.
