I had originally wanted to go with the Seagate BlackArmor unit but it was out of stock and after reading a number of reviews decided to go with the Buffalo unit. I’m very glad I did. Despite what some other reviewers have indicated, this current model works wonderfully and even in a mirrored raid has good response times. Of course the initial process of backing up and copying over data took a while but honestly, when running something in a raid configuration I’m not really expecting thumbdrive or SSD transfer rates. Considering it was transferring most of the data via wireless and in a raid configuration, it was fairly quick (approximately 5 hours from 4 systems simultaneously and a total of 200GB). Some may complain about this but I think those folks are expecting the unrealistic idea of copying from an internal 7200 RPM SATA to another internal 7200 RPM SATA. The reality is this was going over a wireless network and writing to 2 physical drives, not just one. So from my perspective this was a totally acceptable and quick data transfer. Reading from it is far quicker since it only needs to access a single drive for reading purposes and I can stream audio with no issues. I don’t currently have any video to stream other than a handful of music videos that are scaled for 1024 x 768 and they steam without issues as well. All in all, a great purchase for the price and I already know that Buffalo stands behind their product. I know a few corp and state agencies that regularly use Buffalo NAS’s in RAID for system wide backups, etc.

I am an AV Integrator and frequently use this product as a DNLA server for a wide variety of installations including AV receivers and Sonos music systems, I even have one at home. Works right out of the box without an extreme amount of IT knowledge. The IP interface is a little jargon filled as it can be used for a huge variety of backup tasks but as a music server I can’t give it anything but praise. Cheap, quiet, solidly built. Thanks Buffalo.

It is good that I can now share my photos and videos with the 2 other comp at home. Buffalo Technology LinkStation Duo 1 TB does it for me. This is a good back up machine too. The installation and the RAID config were really easy. The two drives in it can be accessed easily should I require a replacement. But I was not able to configure it to my media center easily. LinkStation Duo is advertised to be BitTorrent compatible but I find the video stream to be not very satisfactory.

Am currently returning the second unit as both the first unit and second unit had one of the hard drives crash within 24 hours of setup. Setup was relatively easy, however.

I’m posting this review minutes after having the worst technical support experience in my 15 years in IT support. I have used a Buffalo brand NAS drives in one of my facilities for over a year now and had no issues so I ordered up 3 more last week to install in some of my other buildings. I had an issue with one of the NAS drives so I called their technical support line. The tech gave new meaning to the word RUDE and when I then asked to talk to his manager he flat out told me “no”. I was at a loss for words for a moment but then proceeded to clue him in that not only would I be returning the 3 Buffalo products I had just ordered but would be sure that nobody in my nearly 3000 employee business would ever spend another dollar with their company.
