@JaredBusch said in A recommendation for Buffalo NASes (or at least their support): I do prefer Synology over Buffalo though. HW wise, the main argument for synology over buffalo here in Italy is if you use a NAS as a primary file server: no Terastation 5000 has redundant powersupply, nor easy maintainance is allowed on site. If power suppl. blows: byebye data, you are KO for a couple of days. synology is really well engineered. I'm thinking specifically at TS5400r vs rs815rp+ (also buffalo do not provides units populated with 8TB disks (not yet... hell 8TB in a single disk, brrr))

@ntozier said in Buffalo NAS Return Policy Review: Maybe the person you spoke to didn't realize if was just for a single drive? I mean I find the some non-technical users think of a Tower as the "hard drive". Here is a quote from him: "And that was for the entire NAS with two 4TB drives (I only needed one drive)!!!"

@DustinB3403 said: The performance of the Pi doesn't matter, but the complexity does. That simply is not a viable option in my opinion. The second half of my previous post has nothing to do with a Pi. that would be option 3. And I agree, it's probably not with the hassle/complexity of bothering.

@Dashrender said in SOHO Router Equipment: Are you saying that the UNMS isn't basically the same thing? It is completely not the same thing.
