In itself, I find the solution envisaged by QNAP well.
A unified desktop for all devices - from entry-level to the business class.
"Cloud" - Integration alla plug and play for beginners
Nevertheless, the audience is not the default user who goes with his PC off times on the internet but already rather the heavy users who has a lot of data and possibly has several computers and Netzwerkkentnisse.
The default user is a device of an experienced colleague advised because possibly in setting up (unintentionally?) Be opened via UPnP ports that may never be used ...
This device is, however, reviewed on here to cope with the numerous features. It can be used as a central file store with the various sync functions etc. but everything demanded of the little Seicher- or computing power, is a tedious affair.
Even standard processes such as the operation of the desktop are something hakelig and reminiscent of an always overmatched Windows machine.
Base are safe here scarce 512MB Ram.
I have taken in direct comparison a TS-251 with 1GB Ram in operation and already in the operation of the surface you realize the there existing Performance. Okay .... this also has a Celeron Dual Core @ 2.4GHz
Furthermore, the app selection is rather limited, which is also due to the new ARM architecture safely. So I could not install partout NZBGet because that required by this package "optware" not be installed lies.
That was the killer criterion and it was carried out the order of the TS-251 and TS-231 takes the return to Amazon.
However, a nice side effect was slight 'migration' of the HDD 231 in the 251 and GO: Everything was going right away with the "old" configuration on the new NAS :-).
I want to make the part is not bad, the ARM architecture has potential and it will certainly be adjusted to one and the other apps for this system. For my needs, the TS-231 is too weak on the chest.
For this performance class, there are systems of other manufacturers for less money - even if the operation and the integration Clound then not so nice comes along like the QNAP devices.
One star deduction for the low overall performance
One star deduction for the rather modest app selection (that is before buying not seen but only after trying and internet research)
Conclusion:
For "IchWilMeineEigeneClouD" - users with some serenity and who have no "special wishes" can be accessed here. For performance-hungry users, I recommend the big brother "TS-x51".
