Quality

Fairly easy to work with, pretty well built as well.

File storageas a file storage solution, the f4-423 excels in reliability and speed.

I think this nas should be able to handle anything i throw at it due to its specs and upgradable ram.

This is actually a good thing, because if the device is stolen, the data will be inaccessible.

Price

And at the time you could not beat it for the price.

Overall this is a great value and i plan to add a d6-230 das to the system to give me an extra 6 bays of storage.

Good nas if you are on a budget and want to setup network shares and host cloud services.

It was between the terramaster, synology, and qnap, even looked at the ugreen as well.

I wanted to get a nas to act as my plex server for the lower power consumption compared to a full fat desktop and to provide a ... Read More

I have an aversion to companies who want to limit my choices, and terramaster is not like that.
