Review on FreeNAS by Hugo Caywood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Highly recommended solution and very good customer service

It's super easy to use, it gives you tons of flexibility in terms what kind/size drive your want with virtual disks for each one or just using NAS as if they were all local drives! I have used this product since version 7 (it was free back then). They've added some nice features like iSCSI support which makes things even better now that we can do block level replication across multiple servers without having any issues at either end - no more timeouts when doing data transfers between two different nodes etc.. The only thing about Freenas server 9 so far has been its price tag but otherwise everything else works great!! We're able build up our own private cloud infrastructure within minutes by easily adding new machines along side existing ones while also being flexible enough where clients are not restricted from accessing their files through other means such VPNs ect...
