Also, I can't get the e-mail notification to work. American based tech support was helpful and upgraded me to Retrospect 7.0 which works but sometimes doesn't fully complete the back-up. Retrospect 2.0 back-up software didn't work and kept giving errors. Nice user friendly interface for persons less technically inclined. Overall Review: Purchased this NAS to safeguard personal photos etc. E-mail notification not working (drive problems are supposed to be automatically sent to your e-mail account), but I haven't been able to get this to work. The lower end Seagate drives are not user replaceable. Multimedia potential.Ĭons: Have had some software problems (bugs) and problems with back-ups. Fairly quiet, but drives are 'clicky.' Decent performance. USB expansion ports can act as print server or you can add additional external usb drives.
