OK, my review might be biased. Coming from the Drobo, which was absolutely terrible, to this Synology unit was the best technological move I've made since I switched to OSX 10.1 all those years ago. Speeds are fantastic, built-in server features are excellent, and aesthetically the unit is very pleasing.

Unboxing/Installation/Initial Setup:
The unit arrived from Amazon in a large cardboard box along with the two SATA drives that I ordered for it ( Western Digital 2 TB Caviar Green SATA Intellipower 64 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive WD20EARS). The box for the 411j was very sleek and easy to unpack. No weird seals or wire ties to deal with. The unit itself fits well with the IKEA-assisted look of my office. To install the drives, you remove some handscrews off the back and the top/sides of the unit will come off (in the... Read more

This review is from: Synology DiskStation 4-Bay (Diskless) Network Attached Storage DS411J (White) (Personal Computers)
My setup is 4x2TB RAID5. In addition, I have an external 2TB disk hanging off the USB 2.0 port and a Cyberpower UPS, networked on wired 1Gbps Ethernet. I am using Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB and this box supports the new 4K block size option.

For the RAID 5 volume, I get 25MB/sec write and 70 MB/sec reads which I am very satisfied with.

The system has been up and running since I powered it up about 6 weeks ago.

One problem I had was that a Mac Time Machine backup to the external drive kept failing. By trial and error, I found that this was due the FAT32 filesystem on the external drive. Once I changed it to EXT4, it has worked like a charm.

I'm still experimenting with the Media server features. It can serve up high resolution 1080P video to my PS3 with no glitches. Also, I can access my photos from anywhere on the internet using the iPhone Synology DS Photo+ application (also needed to setup Dynamic DNS and port forwarding on my... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost fantastic, July 16, 2011

This review is from: Synology DiskStation 4-Bay (Diskless) Network Attached Storage DS411J (White) (Personal Computers)
I've owned this DiskStation for about 5 months. Its my first purchase of a "file server" and we got it to have more available and protected storage for our family photos, videos and backup storage for several computers in the house. I'll pass along my experiences and advice.

At first I thought this purchase was going to be the start of a nightmare. Unit arrived DOA. All connections, power adapter, etc. were fine. Requested an RMA and as I was packing the unit up for return noticed a ribbon cable between the front plate and motherboard was askew. Well why not give it a try? Removed enough screws to get the front face off and reseated the ribbon cable. That looked promising, so I reassembled all the hard drives, cabled it up and whew - its worked fine ever since.

I had bought 4 WD 2TB drives to go into it, formatted it up with RAID5, carved it up into several volumes and started putting data onto it. The 8TB formatted down to 5.36TB with RAID5. I plugged in an... Read more
