The problem with such NAS is, how reliable is it.

What happen when it spoil? Can the data be transfer able to another NAS?
Here experience when my 4bay NAS spoil. Probably strike by lightning on the LAN port.

I can't communicate with the NAS. Nor able to transfer the file or backup at all. Cause everything have to go through the LAN port. And the NAS only have 1 LAN port.

Luckily it is a Synology NAS. From their forum answer, I can get a new Synology NAS and just swap the hdd in. Run the new NAS OS and repair the data back.

That save me alot of time and safe the data too.  sweat.gif 

Such experience teach me,
1) not to buy a NAS with just 1 LAN port.
2) Get a brand that long been in NAS industries.
3) With a good OS like such transfer able HDD or data hassle free.
4) Minimum 4bay or more

But Synology x86 4 bay NAS cost = RM2000+ ......crazy expensive


I just normal home user and need simple NAS to store my movies only........
