Recommend with Caution . This is actually my third Buffalo NAS the first two being LinkStations. Both LinkStations had bad fans and one hard drive failed within days of installation. I decided to try a TeraStation hoping it would be more reliable since it is a business class NAS (It is also much more expensive). It is more robust and has a much better fan. It also has more bells and whistles but that is not what drove me to upgrade. So far the hardware including the fan has not given me any problems. I still rate their software, documentation and tech support very poor. I am still waiting on responses from Tech Support from the LinkStation but I have given up any hope.
The one positive I had stated on the product was it was much faster than the Windows server it was replacing. With more experience I now qualify that to say it is fast only if you are only doing one thing at a time. It does not multitask very well. For example if you are running a backup on one computer and try to access files on the NAS from another computer you will wait on the hour glass. This is also true if the TeraStation is performing maintenance such as a disk scan.
It is still a good concept because trying to maintain a full blown Windows server is expensive and a lot of work and constant maintenance. I wish they would get it right. I would recommend this with serious caution that you will have steep learning curve with poor software, documentation and tech support but I believe still better than the Windows server alternative.
