The editors didn't like

  • Limited availability
  • Price of NAS plus separate hard drives can become expensive
  • Initial configuration should have been easier
  • Rather weak documentation
  • Backup utility is not device specific and rather limited
  • Over $300
  • And you still have to buy the drives to put inside it
  • Price
  • Need specific cameras
  • Documentation is lacking a bit
  • Difficult to configure for outside networks depending on router/ISP
  • Setup can be very time consuming
  • Bundled backup software is worthless
  • Inconvenient initial setup
  • Takes a long time to build a RAID 5 setup
  • Requires screwdriver to install hard drives
  • Short one-year warranty.
  • One-year warranty is short
  • PCI-slot does nothing
  • Takes forever to build a RAID 5 array.
  • Thecus Backup Utility could use some improvement

  • Taux de transferts très élevès, Racks hot plug et sans vis, Port eSata, Rétention du câble dalimentation, Fonctionnement silencieux.
  • Le prix, Pas dinfos smarts sur les disques
  • Alors, finalement, le RAID 5 mis en avant pas Thecus est-il si avantageux et performant ? La réponse est oui mais... Oui car les taux de transferts sont très bons avec 30Mo/s en lecture et 16 Mo/s en écriture, la sécurité est bien présente puisque mêm...

  • Ladaptabilité de loffre, La richesse fonctionnelle, La solution logicielle de sauvegarde, Le prix
  • Rien
  • En lançant son N3200, Thecus prend le parti doffrir une structure vide, sans disque dur, pour adapter ce système de stockage à ses besoins. Une position assez originale, quand lhabitude veut quun serveur domestique soit livré avec des disques. Ce ch...

  • Snabbt webbgränssnitt, Tydlig display som visar aktuell information, Antalet funktioner kan utökas med moduler, God RAID5prestanda, Mjukvara under GPLlicens, eSATAstöd
  • Inte idiotsäker lucka på framsidan, Begränsat och något rörigt webbgränssnitt, Stödjer inte RAIDmigrering, Identifieringsprogram som inte fungerar
  • Slutats Som vi tidigare har nämnt har tillverkarna Qnap och Thecus verkligen tagit sig in på NAS-marknaden på kort tid. Detta är av ett skäl. Produkterna är väldigt bra gjorda, användarvänliga och professionella. Det finns dock fundamentala skillnader ...

  • Kjapt webgrensesnitt, Tydelig skjerm som viser aktuell informasjon, Antallet funksjoner kan økes med moduler, God RAID5ytelse, Programvare under GPLlisens, ESATAstøtte
