Customer Ratings & Reviews

Easy to install. Works with a small Network. Cheaper than what I paid for 1TB a few years back. It will backup several laptops, desktops on this hardware and for no extra charge in the Cloud, aswell.

The product is great for a local LAN storage unit, however the software is riding a bit behind in another car. The remote management feature works but, the SSL/TLS certificate is outdated for newer browser security.

This is a very nicely made unit. Does not get hot like others I have had in the past. Set up is not too lengthy. Access speed is very fast. For the price this is the best drive out there.

Quality home "cloud" storage unit. Use it with 4 devices in separate folders, all linked through WiFi. One device can access all folders to look at data from another device. Can access data from remote locations.

Great storage solution for anyone with a mesh wire router setup with no USB connection. It plugs directly into a port on your router. Easy to setup. Really like the UI software, and the fact that it works flawlessly on my MacBook and Windows laptop. Also like that I can program it to sleep and wake up at certain times to give it time to cool.

Easy to set up and use. It has enough space to store all your files .

What's not to like, plug it in, works fine. Happens to be just what I wanted, save files from anything on my network. No problems, easy to install. Nothing negative found to date. Fast enough for me but I don't back up my entire computer!

Backups to this device failed more often than the succeded. Normally I'd return a device that was a failure, but I can't fully destroy the data on the drive, so it potentially could cost me far more than the purchase price if someone was able to recover data I wrote to it. The software that you get with it is limited and very clumsy to use. I do *NOT* recommend this device.

Because Microsoft keeps screwing with windows networking I needed a reliable way to share files with other computers on my network at home and this works just fine. I can access anywhere in my home and also remotely as long as I have WiFi. I have it hooked up as a LAN drive so if a device has access to the LAN it can see the drive. Love it and wish I had done this years ago.

I had never owned a Buffalo product, so I was a little reluctant to try them out. I'm glad I did. This works well and integrated into my network nicely. While the software is a bit clunky, the LinkStation works well once it is set up and accessible.

I have previous experience with using the Buffalo drive, there are very reliable and the customer service is always very helpful even when the product is out of warrenty.

Fairly easy to use. Installed software on several different computers and it works great. We can see everything shared on the drive. I was the software interface was a little more clean, but that in my only issue.

Easy to setup. Pretty good NAS for this price. The downside is this machine is pretty slow.

This item provides a good backup storage option in the small business environment.

Arrived quickly via mail. Connections were simple enough. Set up via laptop and mobile went awry. I can "see" the unit on my network, but it does not allow read/write to folders. Probably user error, but this could be plug and play for the "simple" tasks, like backup and storage. That's all mostpeople need. No time to find the answers yet, but maybe soon...

Needed an NAS to back up and share files, it does the trick. Super easy to set up.

This NAS will not allow you to upload or download more than one file at a time. Apparently you could do it at one point, but the process was supported by a Flash Plug-In. Buffalo has not elected to update their WebAccess program that manages the NAS since Flash was discontinued so users are limited to only 1 file per upload or download. I checked the user forum and with Buffalo's support team and they confirmed my discovery. This is basic functionality and something I most definitely need so back in the box and to Best Buy it goes!

Got this for my music as I’m a dj. Great little unit

Very easy to set up. Quick access from all computers on my home network. Owned a 1st Gen LinkStation for about 15 years and it is still working. Only upgraded to this unit for its enhanced security (newer SMBv2) which my older LinkStation did not support.

Works well for what it was designed to do. Files are easily retrieved
