First of all, note that this is not your run of the mill network attached hard drive. This is a small business grade Network Attached Storage (NAS) solution. As a result, its configuration options can be overwhelming at first glance, but it is undoubtedly an extremely rewarding device to get to know. First the awesome: ############# 1. Lots of RAID options: # JBOD (Just a Bunch/Box of Disks) - i.e., the entire array is treated as a set of 4 independent disks. The bad thing - if a drive crashes you lose the data on that disk. The good - you get your full 4TB of storage. This shows up as the option "None". # RAID 0 - Data Striping : i.e., some bytes of your data go to one disk and other bytes to another. This writing occurs in parallel, so it is faster than JBOD, and you get your full 4TB - but still no data recovery. This shows up as the option "None (RAID 0)". # RAID 1 - Mirror/Stripe: i.e., the same data is...

I had difficulty setting up--this may not be the fault of the product--it is most likely user error. I called the support number--and happily found a great person who spoke English well on the other end. I felt like I was talking to apple support--it was awesome. He walked me through everything he could. Unfortunately, he is not trained on apple computers so although this is apple compatible, there was a lot he couldn't tell me how to do--which will necessitate a call to apple. He was able to at least get me up and running getting time machine backups, showing me how to get documents onto the drive. He could not help me set it up so that i could access it from another computer because i have an apple modem and some settings on that need changed. He also couldn't tell me how to put a copy of my pictures or itunes on the drive--again directing me to apple support.--but i will be able to get that support from apple I am sure. If I had a pc, he would have been able to help me... Read more 5 of 6 people found the following review helpful: A Huge Amount of Storage. Best for Experienced Techies, By This review is from: Iomega StorCenter ix4-200d 4TB (4 x 1TB) Network Storage Cloud Edition - 35436 (Personal Computers) Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?) I got the Iomega StorCenter primarily as a home back up for extensive photo and video files and it is working as advertised. However, while I'm not a complete Tech Idiot, I did need some help from our IT person to install and configure this device. After several weeks, I haven't had any significant problems and I've been happy with the device. |
