  • "V hot and runs port scans on other machines"
    2.0 stars
    on by JohnSmall

    Pros: Cheap. Easy to set up as long as you only want a networked disk.

    Cons: Runs very hot and the fan is close to useless. In fact the first one I got the fan didn't work at all so I sent it back and got a replacement. The extras e.g. the backup software is a bad joke. You can't go back and change the settings.

    Summary: Not only does it run at a toasty 60 deg C, but it runs port scans on all the other machines in my network. What is that all about! My guess is that they've built the thing to run hot so the disks will die early and then people have to pay top dollar for the proprietary and expensive replacement.

    Avoid.
