  • Diverse WiFi mogelijkheden,  Mogelijkheden om bestanden via DLNA te delen,  FTP Server,  BluRay's delen
  • Je kunt hem niet naast je routerophangen,  Installatie via de CD werkt niet heel lekker
  • De Optical SmartHub van Samsung is een enorm veelzijdig apparaat. De combinatie van een externe Blu-Ray speler met WiFi en NAS mogelijkheden is bijzonder te noemen. Dit maakt de Optical SmartHub de ideale partner in ieder netwerk. Category: Netwerken Tag...

  • DVD Streaming werkt goed, Music Player voldoet prima, er is ook Audio CD streaming, Backup functie is nuttig, kan zelfstandig branden, Kan bestanden overzetten naar je tablet zonder laptop tussenkomst, Router functie zit erin zodat internet doorgegeven ka
  • DVD Player weergeeft geen DVD menu, dat is jammer, Ongemakken zijn mogelijk tijdens DVD afspelen (zie tekst), Teveel SW mode in DVD Player en Video Player, je hebt sterke tablet voor nodig, Audio CD Player is overbodig, File Manager kan niet kopieren naar

  • Abstract:  Не за горами время, когда ваша микроволновка, стиральная машина, пылесос и даже электробритва обзаведутся беспроводным подключением к сети. А пока познакомься с новым пишущим DVD-приводом, к которому пытливые умы из Samsung приделали встроенный Wi-Fi-излу...

  • Abstract:  В последнее время мало кто из нас пользуется оптическими приводами, которые постепенно уходят из цифровой жизни современного владельца ПК. Однако диски никуда не исчезали, архивы есть почти у каждого – это и личные фотоальбомы, видео со знаменательных соб...

  • Fácil de usar após a configuração, único do tipo que compartilha DVD/CD pela rede para qualquer dispositivo conectado.
  • Configuração via interface web bastante complicada, filmes em DVD via WiFi ficam com atraso de áudio, WiFi não é no padrão N, limite de quatro dispositivos conectados por vez

  • Relativt brukervennlig. Fleksibel bruk.
  • Hadde harddisk vært mer praktisk enn dvd?
  • I utgangspunktet kunne man sagt at Samsung kunne gjort mer ut av dette – for eksempel med å integrere en harddisk og utvide NAS-funksjonaliteten ytterligere. Samtidig er det elementer som ville kjørt opp prisen. Cirka 800 kroner må man ut med for Sams...
