The unit transfers data pretty slow. It moves at about 28Mbps when connected across 2 routers, or 48Mbps when direct connected. To transfer my movie collection of 750GB, that would have taken nearly 2 full days of uninterrupted transfer.
Now, the user manual says there are no user servicable parts inside, but it does not take an A+ certification to remove and replace a hard disk. I pulled it out of the NAS and dropped it into my Linux box for a transfer rate of 480mpbs or 60MB/s That's more of the speed I was hoping for out of this unit. However, it looks like it's impossible over the network.
So, Now I'm still trying to get the root Samba share to mount on my computer... I can browse to it, but I cannot mount it for some reason. I can mount subdirectories, however I cannot mount the main IP share. It's either a problem with the Ubuntu implementation of Samba, or a problem with the NAS
