Good value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I connected this to my network, followed the quick start guide and it was up and running in just a couple of minutes. The Smartware, shares and user setup is a bit challenging. The public share and remote access works well.

Took a little time to get it set up.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not had extensive use of it yet, but appears to be doing what I needed: upload anything at anytime from anywhere for secure storage so can free up space on my iPad and iPhone, plus know that my pictures are safe. There are multiple downloads during setup; a summary of all the setup procedures would be nice.

Why pay monthly when you can have your own cloud
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great way to store your pictures, music and files with out having to pay monthly. I love the fact that every picture you take with your phone, it automatically uploads to your cloud. Plus you can have many users you want.

Easy setup and fast
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up was painless and we immediately started using the unit. Much faster than the NAS we were using before. Also allows a secondary USB disk to be added so I can also share that as well. I prefer having my files held locally..
