Not easy to utilize, so far

Does not seem to have all its issues worked out

loading data can be very slow.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you have huge amounts of data to back up it will take hours. Once the data is stored the drive performs well and is easy to access through your network.

Good NAS
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was stupid easy and even with the firmware upgrade it was up and running in about 15 minutes. Tested streaming some movies and it didn't lag at all so it is accomplishing what I bought it for- to not have my media pc running 24/7. Only thing I'm disappointed with is not being able to find a network device that you can browse to and manage the whole disc without their web interfaces- I'd like to be able to pull up the whole disc and create and manage directories on my own. But overall it is easy to manage in a browser and it is fast. Haven't used the USB since I back up the data to a 3tb drive on the media pic using Acronis.
