The best customer reviews 37 of 38 people found this review helpful. By Sam Smith Good product I ordered this item from another web page, so avoid the problems that the previous user experience. Other than that I have had this product for 2 weeks and it was great work. The setting is a few attempts to find the device, but from small bumps in the road that has worked very well and just as promised. Connect my USB external hard drive now is very simple. The speed of loading / unloading is very rapid. WebAccess works very well also. My only complaint is that when the Auto Power mode and the device is closed due to inactivity (as it should), you can not restart the WebAccess disk. Can only be activated from the home network. Therefore, if you want to use WebAccess Sometimes the device must be on all the time and energy to waste. A minor gripe in the grand scheme of things, however. 56 of 62 people found this review helpful Almost promises by Mr. Sousa product has almost everything I expected from the description. An important piece that is not clear on the specs is that the external USB drive must be formatted in XFS users to read / write. All older USB drive that you can have is probably formatted in NTFS or FAT32. Once you install on the LinkStation's USB port, you can read but not write. There are two important effects on: First you have to spend much time backing up the original contents of the LinkStation drive, format it to XFS and devotes much time to copy the data back to it .. . and you can not use the device to do it myself. You need a copy of a computer network that an intense and causes unnecessary traffic. Took me two full days to do this operation on a 300 GB hard drive. Second: If the format that you can not remove the USB device and read in another machine with Vista or XP. Only Linux / Unix OS would be able to read data from there a little trap occurs during installation, an error that requires buffalo impossible to reproduce, so can not be fixed, but is linked by dozens of users on your blog frequently asked questions , has blocked my admin password. I could not enter the username and of course, could not change anything in the T configuration. Only after a few days I had the opportunity to find a solution for a "refresh" the firmware. Your blog has a walkthrough for it. I hope the same does not happen again. In addition, the alarm function is working fine (but you must use your NAS Navigator application on each client so that the unit wakes up after a standby). The driver is fast enough to allow the transmission of a DVD movie on DVD in the drive and kept playing on my laptop. Moreover, media resource server and iTunes works fine on the network can create a library based on it. I may end up using the USB port as a backup of sensitive data in the LinkStation, and not as prolonged storage device (it is the recommendation of companies at least) 22 of 22 people found this review helpful. Excellent multi-function NAS Mark bought a home and found a job that is so excellent, I bought one for my small office as well. For home, I needed a NAS to store more of a support unit for streaming to PS3 and Xbox 360 Buffalo This device makes it very good, with almost no set-up at all on these two DLNA devices. Enable "Media Server" from the very easy to use browser-based admin utility and set. Other great features: access to the website is very easy to access (buffalonas.com), combined with comprehensive but easy to use user management. The function of Bittorrent is so easy and convenient, you can use it even if you do not know right now what it does. It works while the computer is turned off - of course, and works quietly - in fact, in the silence, because this unit is so quiet, even when accessing files that are not 5 stars because: really stupid - PS3, photos will be selected .
