Read and write speeds are atrocious (Pushing 7MB/s on gigabit, 5MB/s on Fast Ethernet) as is access control. Even though it is running samba internally it refuses to authenticate against my samba domain controller. AFP is "supported" but doesn't even work (unless you still run OS 9 I guess), and there are no options available for Linux/UNIX such as NFS. Even the web-based management tool is riddled with spelling errors! On top of all of this, when a drive failed it took over an hour to disassemble the thing and switch it out.

It looks like they at least claim to have fixed most of the problems with this unit (at least drive swapping will be easier), but I'm not going to take their word for it... The readyNAS has had all of the features of this new unit for a long time and has proven itself already in the market (Plus it is cheaper). Once I can justify spending the money to replace this Buffalo TurdStation, it's going off the roof.]]>Sep 28th 2006 12:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/09/28/buffalo-intros-ts-htgl-r5-terastation-pro-nas-series/http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/28/buffalo-intros-ts-htgl-r5-terastation-pro-nas-series/Apr 10th 2007 4:44PM
