No Rsync,

This review is from: LaCie 301298U 2TB Ethernet Disk XP Embedded Network Attached Storage (Personal Computers)
Very easy to set up, but no Rsync capabilities pretty much makes this a "dumb" network drive and useless. But if you only want a dumb ethernet disk, it's very nice and clean. Simple to set up with a nice GUI interface.

This review is from: LaCie 301298U 2TB Ethernet Disk XP Embedded Network Attached Storage (Personal Computers)
I had this NAS dropped on my lap by my employers and told to use it for data backup, simple enough. Configuration was actually very simple though being limited in what you have access to is extremely annoying (You can't turn the network card off of auto-negotiate for example). My main problem with it is how painfully slow it is. Backing up 1.13 Tb off of my SAN took a whooping 4 days to complete even though everything is hooked up over a Gigabyte backbone in the same rack. After Googling the problem it seems that this is par for the course for this unit. In my opinion, seek other options. A 2TB external hard drive hooked up to a workstation would smoke the speed of this unit and for half the cost. STAY AWAY!

Didn't fit our purpose,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: LaCie 301496U 8TB Ethernet Disk XP Embedded Network Attached Storage (Personal Computers)
We bought this to have a place for our workstations to archive media, then we would copy it from the LaCie to external HDD for long term storage. The unit set up and integrated into our system quickly. When started sending data to it, we found the problem. Although the unit has USB ports for connecting external devices, and has a reduced XP OS, it CANNOT simply copy data to the drives. You must use the software included to create a data file usuable ONLY by the software. So if you want to restore data directly to your workstation, or if the unit goes down (which is why you archive it to begin with) you will not be able to recover your data. Even the LaCie tech support was surprised by this.Although the unit was easy to setup and may work in your environment, I'm not sure it offers anything over a simple NAS to justify the cost. Amazon accepted the return without a problem. 2115|R39XLHILP90VHN;2115|R8FZ1HT7LWAIT;2115|RSF6UEYQMZS5Z;
