Definitely this device is not intuitive and simple to set up a "home NASU". The manual is not supplied at all, and you have to do a classic search on their forum. Fortunately, it is also available in Czech. Unfortunately, the manual doesn't add much to the information value either, because it basically just translates what is written in the online guide, but it doesn't explain why it should be set there and what this function is specifically for, and what the purpose of it is, etc. The very basic setup from the moment of mounting the disks to the creation of the arrays takes about 2 hours of work. They supply highly sophisticated utilities that can help quite a bit. Otherwise, it really bothers me a lot that this NAS can only be used for manual saving of data to the disk and its work. Unless I transfer it to some other web service. But you can't save anything via HyperV or VMWare, let alone create anything there, and that was very disappointing. Wasted money on my particular task. I should have gotten a really primitive disk array, and I probably would have been better off. My guess. I had very high expectations for this product.
Sophisticated user interface at a very clear level
Countless settings for network and system functions (special features for Apple PC, Windows, Linux)
Domain controller, absolute control over users and their access to folders. DNS included.
2.5Gb network connection (but not very well resolved)
Moderate support for virtualization solutions
Virtual network and its complete setup
A bunch of supporting apps already included in the control panel
Ransomware data protection
FTP, Telnet, SSH protocol and more.
Raid1, 0 and it's working without it!
The user interface is clear, but some parts are quite confusing, some parts are missing at least some help or the help doesn't say anything at all.
Treshold function on network arrays - I didn't get the point. It just keeps screaming the alarm
The domain controller does work, but I don't understand the point of using it in a home environment, when the DNS record rewritten in the router for this controller doesn't work at all. Redundancy
The 2.5 Gb additional connection is great, it's just that it's designed in parallel with the 1 Gb networking that wakes up the drives when they are "called" from the network. So once the NAS goes to sleep, you can't access the disks from the other network. The sleep function must be switched off completely - or rather. power saving mode.
Absolute non-functionality with Hyper-V Manager under both Windows 10 Pro and Windows Server 2019.The NAS will not allow a system user to access the disk array from a PC using HyperV. So you cannot upload or export VMH to this field. And so far, there is no way around it. Support is silent and a bunch of these queries lie completely unnoticed in their forums.
Overcomplicated security and user interface, you have to switch half of the things to make it work on your home network anyway. And to the corporate it's a special prasopes.
