Great NAS, but I would have preferred to see the slots made

  • Quiet, but the previous one was quieter
  • Easy installation.
  • Easily switch from previous Qnap NAS.
  • Price, was more expensive than the previous one.

My old Qnap suddenly broke down after 7 years of loyal service. Fortunately, I was able to order it quickly and it was delivered quickly. Thanks to a tip from a review on this site, I was able to quickly install this NAS. So I didn't have a backup. So it was exciting to see whether the hard drives of the old NAS would work. That was no problem. Install the app and go with that banana. Be careful not to format the HDs! The slots are made of plastic. I'm not a fan of that. I could not lock the 4th lock. This NAS makes a little more noise than my old one, but that doesn't bother me.

super backup tray

  • Easy installation of an hdd
  • Easy switch from another QNAP NAS
  • Many possibilities

Switched from my old TS-459 Pro II to this nas. This boy's box was not closed/sealed upon receipt and it was shipped in its original packaging. The package includes a Cat 6 UTP, bolts, manual and keys and its power supply with a cord. Detaching the HDDs from the previous bays took some screwing and pushing them into the new bays went very quickly. Remove 2 plates on the sides and insert the HDD and then push the plates back on. After starting up, Qfinder pro showed me that the migration of the 4 HDDs was OK. The only option I had is to use QUTS Hero as OS. I would like to use QTS but how do I do that? So on the site of qnap just search and found the necessary explanation. Boot the NAS without HDDs and when you log in you will be given the option to choose QTS. The same goes if you want to go back to QUTS Hero. After the startup, the nas was turned off again and the HDDs were fully pushed back into their slot and then started up again. After startup put my fixed IP back and everything was as it was before on the old nas, only now with modern software.

Very pleased with this nas so far. Not difficult to install, especially if you come from another QNAP. The only difficulty was how to get it from QUTS Hero to QTS.

Power consumption given a star because I had to enter it. At the moment I don't know if his energy consumption is also better than the previous one.

fast nose

  • quiet
  • small
  • And processor better than the celerons of other nas devices
  • software is buggy, a menu option for sharing just disappeared. that's what you have a nas for. qnmap is still looking

It's nice, quiet and handy, but make sure you first enable the advanced folder rights during the installation, afterwards things can go wrong with the rights for your users. ok had to reset and start over
