Decided to run my Plex server and phone back up on a separate NAS (this one) vs my 2 others I built and works great with zero connectivity issues. Keep in mind, be weary of reviews under a 4 / this in my experience is generally user knowledge issues: Wrong Hard Drives installed, personal computer issues, operating system issues are just a few. Take your time and read as much as you can - knowledge is everything when it comes to NAS. This one is very simple to setup and get running. For the price, it’s very very good. Yes, there are a few software updates they can (and sure they will) do - every device on the market can be improved, obviously. 1) Saw some comments Plex did not work, but it certainly does if you set it up properly and you have good internet. 2) You can “drag and drop” on any nas server when you connect through any computer, you just have to connect to the drives. Some mentioned you have to do this through a webpage, but this is not correct. Very simple once you know how. 3) Had no issues backing up my phone with separate user folders for family. Kids all say it works perfect - literally just clicked a few buttons and it just runs. You MAY have an issue installing TOS initially with an Apple product - if you do, have someone come over with a Windows laptop to get you up and running. Once installed, connecting Apple or Windows is fine.

I'm quite pleased with this Terra-Master NAS. Consider my rating a strong 4 stars, just shy of 5. It took me a while to get it set up properly but Tech support was very good. I initially fit it with one drive and then decided to add a second after I'd set up the first. This raised the issue of how they should be formatted -- as single drives or JBOD (just a bunch of drives). Stuff I found online (not from Terra-Master but other sources) was mutually contradictory. Some sources said that JBOD would give me access to each drive separately while Single Drive would treat both drives as one large driv, i.e., two 8TB drives would appear as one 16TB drive. Other sources said the exact opposite. Another issue is that there are different terms for the storage areas, with a nested hierarchy. None of that was readily apparent to me initially, which made the setup process fairly confusing. But tech support responded within 24 hours and provided me the information I needed to get everything up and running properly. I think that if I had decided from the get-go to set up the NAS with drives in both bays, things would have been simpler than first setting it up with one and then adding a second after the fact. By the way, to have each drive accessible as a separate drive location (e.g., two separate 8TB drives rather than a single 16TB storage area), the Single Drive formatting is the way to go. I mapped them as network storage locations and now have icons on my desktop for each drive. Once everything was set up, it's been completely straightforward to use them. While the documentation could be better for people like me who are less familiar with network storage protocols, tech support got me up and running and the drive works very well with a couple of Seagate NAS drives installed. Once everything is set up, the user interface is actually pretty slick and user friendly. It runs inside your web browser. There's also a utility program that can be used for managing the NAS but after setup, I don't think most users will need to access it. The NAS comes with a bunch of apps that can be downloaded and installed. Again, better documentation would help. While I suspect that people who do a lot of network stuff would be familiar with these apps, I wasn't and had to look up what they were individually. Turns out, I had no use for most of them but people in a business context well may. There's definitely a learning curve to setting up a NAS for the first time but I think Terra-Master does at least as good a job of preparing you for the process as their competitors do and their quality-to-cost ratio was very attractive. For me, even as is, the Terra-Master gets close to a 5-star rating. If the documentation were better, both for the setup and for the apps, it would be a solid 5 in my judgment.

1 star for poor product design and crappy customer service PRODUCT DESIGN: So I start by unboxing my new F4-210, installing some blank 2TB drives in the first two bays, and looking at the “quick start” guide that comes with the product (no included manual, BTW, just a QR code that takes you to a sort of “wizard” that hopefully serves your needs). It says to download the “NAS Navigator” app. Luckily there’s a Mac version, so so far so good. The NAS Navigator app finds my new NAS, so there’s promise there. I can’t follow the procedure for changing the IP address, but I’m savvy enough to be able to assign my computer a custom IP address so it can talk to the NAS, so off and running, I think. (BTW, changing the IP address requires the admin password for the NAS and, do they document what the default password is in their manual or otherwise, NO! Spoiler alert, it appears to be “admin”). Now I can start the “login” procedure that will supposedly let me set a new administrator password, initialize the disks, and basically let me configure my new NAS. Let’s gooo. Unfortunately, here’s where some truly bad design comes into play. The onboard “wizard” jumps right to trying to auto-download the TOS software after it does the hard-disk check. Unfortunately on my system, the NAS can’t appear to download the right software, so it just hangs on this step. Repeatedly. Over and over again. (I assumed at one point if I let it go long enough it would give up and then let me try an alternate method. Nope, it’ll sit forever on that “downloading TOS” screen if you let it.) Some google searches, download the product manual (which you have to go seek out, BTW, the “quick start” guide doesn’t link to it), and, whew, there’s a manual method of installing TOS that seems appropriate given my situation. OK. So I go and download the correct version of the TOS software, which is an “.ins” file, whatever that is (something zipped and propetary, come to learn). OK, how do I get the NAS to use this downloaded, locally-available version of TOS instead of trying to download it? Crappy design hits here: there is no way to do it: * The “wizard” is automatically advancing to the self-download method, and won’t let me interrupt it (trust me, there’s no link to an alternate method, although from the documentation, there once was such an option, but it’s gone now). * The documentation provides no instruction on how to use / apply this .ins file I’ve downloaded. Nothing. Just references to feeding it to the “wizard” at the appropriate step in the process (that never comes) * The product forum and FAQ all talk about the manual method, but, again, assume either that a) you know how to apply the .ins file, or b) that your “wizard” is the version that gives you the option to go the “manual” route instead of just assuming it needs to download the software every time. CRAPPY SUPPORT: OK, it’s business hours still, and there’s a sticker on the device that says they offer 24x7 support. So I go to the web site to see if I can get some live assistance. (This is after having thoroughly reviewed the FAQs, troubleshooting pages (which are laughably thin, BTW), and the knowledge base). Guess what? The “Live Chat” option on their website doesn’t work. At all. (I tried multiple browsers, and even inspected the source code: it’s a static image with some javascript that does nothing, doesn’t even return an error if you look at the javascript console Here, try it yourself (https://www.terra-master.com/global/support/)). There’s a “live chat” option on the page menu as well, but it does the same thing: nothing. Alright, there’s an email form you can use. Maybe not as immediate, but in this case what option do I have? I use that page, solve the Capcha, and type out a frustrated-but-not-abusive email, because I’ve been at this for a couple of hours now. Come to realize, that function doesn’t appear to work either. Nothing happens. At this point, I am simply done. They’ve done everything in their power to frustrate me, and I feel certain if I somehow, miraculously get past this TOS installation problem, that the rest of my experience with this product and company isn’t going to suddenly become positive. I’m returning the product to Amazon and I will pay more for a more-reputable company’s product, I guess.
