Thanks to the 2 pre-configured drives, you have a total storage capacity of 4TB at your disposal right away. You simply set up the ready-to-use NAS in the living room or at the office. The extensive data protection ensures that your files are kept safe, so you can store all your movies, photos, and other important files in your own personal cloud.

Review is 4,4 out of 10.

Buy something else. This is not reliable.

speed over the network cable
Unreliable software

After more than a year of use and some firmware upgrades, this product still does not meet the basic requirements. It sighs and puffs and moans, without doing any real work. The software hangs very quickly, so that when you access it remotely, you cannot access your data. You will not receive a notification (no reboot suggestion) so that you immediately (and often unnecessarily) tinker with your network settings.
