Rating: - Network Storage
The transaction was one of the best that I have experienced with Amazon, and that's not a knock on Amazon. The item was delivered ahead of expectation and it was packaged perfectly. Thanks J&R and thanks to Amazon.
Rating: - A great server, but security is just a bit too well enforced.
Great product--sets up easily and performs well, with a reasonably small footprint. Mirroring works great! Only two nit dislikes. It's a little loud and it requires a password to log into the drive, even if you don't want to use one.
Each time one of my systems is rebooted, I have to access the drive again with a userid/password. That userid/password does not have to be used again until the next reboot, but it is annoying to have to use one.
I should say that I have ... Read More
Rating: - OK for the basics only
If you're only looking for basic NAS functionality, then this unit will do the job. However, don't be surprised by the following:
1. The web interface is clunky and sparse. There aren't many functions to use or settings to change. For example, you can't browse the device contents from the web interface.
2. A lot of space is chewed up by the system. For the pair of 500GB drives, I have them in Raid 1 (mirrored) and have only 454GB available.
3. Gigabit is in name only. Don't ... Read More
Rating: - Does what it is supposed to do
I have had this drive for about a week now. Contrary to the CNET review, very easy initial setup with the assistance of the iomega online chat help (the written and online documentation are awful). I used them 4 or 5 times for questions. There was little to no wait and they were very helpful. I am accessing the drive over my home network from a mac desktop, a windows XP laptop and a windows vista laptop without any real problems. The only issue I have is that vista does not remember the logon ... Read More
Rating: - Good value despite limitations as NFS server
Physically, this is a nice product - good package, runs very quiet (despite other comments here), and consumes a very low 17 watts of AC power.
Quick Start Guide is laughable -- very brief, but entertaining as it is in about 16 languages. User manual on CD is better, but it definitely does not tell the whole story if you are interested in advanced use, such as with NFS. If you already know the ropes, you will manage OK, however.
I am using this box as an NFS server for my ... Read More
