The unpacking and plugging is quite easy, the configuration menu is concise, easy to understand the settings. I have Raid 1 configuration, the media server as well as the energy-saving mode activated left.
Why can no longer access the folder structure Today Media Player but the files have to be presented by a media server is indeed a mystery to me, but heard her does not necessarily here.
Now I have my videos, about 2.2 TB, copied to this device. The rate was actually quite good at around 40Mbit.
The media server then required still days until he had listed all the videos, but the amount of data you do not push so every day on its storage device.
What the many divisions "by year, by date, etc." mine is not understandable, since getting a couple of films with no apparent system are listed. So I use only "Folder".
Then came the first test, I started a media player and looked a HD movie on he was working fine, so I tried the same in another room to see a movie - no problem. That would be a 5 star machine, if it did not, unfortunately, run almost constantly.
The blue standby LED I get virtually never seen, even if all the other network devices are turned off, so that I could still be alive, although thus the advertised power saving function does not intervene and did not even designed for continuous operation server hard disks are installed but any Green Line. WD will know why there is no extended warranty period.
But the main problem is that equipment is no longer usable when it is preoccupied with himself (or almost always). It is not even possible to watch a movie judder, a second start after a few minutes and is presented as a frame by frame without sound. So the NAS is unfortunately totally useless for me.
