As of DSM 7.3 you can now use any name brand drive again. I tested with my old 4 TB Seagate Red drives and no issues.



I buy this NAS for the 2.5 LAN .. I haven't fully tested it yet... but I want to say that the packaging and delivery were EXCELLENT.

gobbs of storage space, small footprint, comes with everything you need to set up

As a long time and happy user of the Raidon External Raid storage units I decided to try the QNAP units when I needed more storage capacity. The QNAP DAS units are solidly built and are professionally finished. They look like high quality equipment. Installation of the hard disk drives requires minimal effort. I configured the unit for Raid 1 using the switches on the rear panel. Set up took a while for my pair of Seagate Ironwolf Raid Hard Disk Drives as was to be expected. So far the unit has been running flawlessly for a week. Being a Direct Attached Storage device, consolidation of my files spread across many HDDs, Thumb-drives and smaller external raid units will be easy. Looking forward to consolidating all my files, on one storage device, and ending the "Digital Clutter". Once the consolidation is completed the QNAP will be connected to a NAS so my files can be accessed from any devise regardless of where I'm at.


Good product with lots of options for home storage use. Simple interface and fast.



i was looking for a new Plex server for full 4k HD remux HEVC mkv files. This is it!!! Play files without issue using LG tv plex app. If youre looking for a new Plex server you wont regret this purchase.




DDR5 gives on-die error correction Extra bays give cache options Compatible RAM upgrades TrueNAS compatibility


This was supper easy to set up!!

This was an excellent purchase. Arrived very quickly, 2 days earlier than promised. Had seriously good packaging to protect from possible shipping accident. Setup was easy. There are at UG tutorials and youtube videos to aid if you have questions. There is lots of flexibility renmixing hdd's or m2's and no brand restrictions as some other NaS brands have. I install 7TB of storage which works well for.my home LAN. After 3 weeks use of the "2800" I am totally happy.
