  • High-capacity network drive system, with RAID support and file and print server options
  • Expensive, poor documentation, doesn’t work with Safari
  • Once it’s set up, the TS-409 Pro works well and provides a very versatile storage system and file sharer. However, its cost, complex set-up procedure, and lack of compatibility with the main Mac web browser mean that it’s mostly going to be su...

  • Abstract:  Qnap ist mit dem TS-409 Pro im NAS-Vergleichstest vertreten. Wie auch bereits das vorgestellte Drobo Share NAS-Gehäuse können in dem sehr gut verarbeitetem TS-409 Pro maximal vier Festplatten eingebaut..

  • Abstract:  Auf die Frage, wie man mehreren Anwendern einfach und unkompliziert Speicherkapazität im Netzwerk zur Verfügung stellt, gibt es eine Antwort: Network Attached Storage, kurz NAS. NAS-Geräte zeichnen sich durch einfache Handhabung aus und sind nicht von ...

  • Die QNAP TS-409 Pro Turbo NAS hat im Test einen sehr guten Eindruck hinterlassen. Lediglich Kleinigkeiten trüben das äußerst positive Gesamtbild. Beginnen wir jedoch mit den positiven Aspekten, welche sich bereits in der sehr einfachen Bedienung kenn...

  • Synology DS508 är snabbast, har flest finesser, det klart bästa gränssnittet och rymmer en disk mer än de andra. Det är inte alltid mest är bäst, men här är det faktiskt så. Visst är många av fin...

  • Enkel installation, Kraftfullt och enkelt webbgränssnitt, Bra RAIDmigreringsfunktioner, Dynamisk lagringskapacitet
  • Något låg prestanda
  • Qnap skryter mycket om att deras NAS-servrar är användarvänliga. Efter att ha testat TS-409 Pro kan vi bara hålla med Qnap: deras NAS-servrar är väldigt enkla och lätta att konfigurera. Detta betyder inte att de inte är kraftfulla. Webbgränssnittet är...
