"BEWARE - don't lose your important data with this thing" on by holmesdw
Pros: the fact that it is a NAS
Cons: Overheats
Locks up with flashing red lights
Complete loss of many gigabytes of data
HUGE waste of time
MASSIVE loss of dataSummary: Don't even begin to consider this drive if your intention is to use it to store data... It will store it ok but, without warning, will lock up hard as a rock (what it has now become) and any stored data will be completely inaccessible.
Despite numerous attempts for assistance, Seagate customer / technical support has not even bothered to reply at all... Don't waste your time and money here.

"Guess I am lucky mine lasted 13 months" on by tommister
Pros: Case looks nice?
Cons: Horrible user interface, horrible documentation, slow
Summary: I wanted to use this as a home server for my music and documents. That was fine for about 8 months, then it started to slow down. The the red exclamation mark started to stay on (this is not a valid status per the documentation as far as I can tell). It became too slow to use so I now use an old PC for my NAS. Not sure what to do with it - I feel like I wasted $249.

"Bad device, bad support, don't buy this" on by snirky
Pros: It has a somewhat attractive case
Cons: died after 3 weeks, horrible tech support
Summary: Tech support wanted me to test the output of the power supply with a multi-meter. When I told them I don't have one, they said to go to radio shack and they'd help me. Really? ***?! Wouldn't authorize a return until I tested the power supply. I took delight in smashing it. I'll never buy Maxtor/Seagate again. I'm a consultant and will tell my clients the same. Avoid this product it will die - just read the forums on their own web site. Everyone hates this thing.
