Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm about to return this

I came from the Drobo site. This block works well when it works. 5 minutes ago the UI disappeared and only the activity light was blinking with no LCD panel info and couldn't close it properly because the button wasn't responding. The panels were busy, although their individual displays were inaudible. I had to turn off the power and restart. This is the 8th time I've done this in less than a month. I have 4x6TB drives with all my media and the web interface is damn slow at times for a NAS whose ONLY job is to serve Plex locally with no transcoding. I'm NEAR to return this unit and get a Qnap or Synology as internet access should NEVER be disabled on the NAS. It seems to me that the device checks the integrity of all drives, and then has problems and completely does not respond until you turn it off. I'm giving it until the 29th, if it happens again I'll return it and get another brand. Too bad because they are cheap

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Long time
