If you're thinking of buying one of these to use as network storage on a windows 10 or 11 system don't bother.it works great as NAS with win7, probably XP too. Spend your money on something that works like it's supposed to.Follow-up: One roadblock to registering the unit was that they want a photp proof of purchase. So I used snipping tool to get a screen shot, saved it as a jpeg file and selected the file on the registration page. Error message came back that the file type was not recognized, Tried 3 times, same result. opened a chat window for help and 'no one was available at this time. 11:30 Eastern or 15:30UTC.Go elsewhere, you'll thank me.

It took me many months off and on to finally purchased this unit. I found setup manageable so far but it is not 100% finished with time being the limiter. It took me lead time to define in my mind what is it I really want. First, my wife and I have 20+ years of data that needed protection and numerous external units is just not the answer. Second, call me ill-informed but I do not trust ANY 3rd party cloud service. Third, I'm a believer in the K.I.S.S rule with a lockout of apps I don't need nor have to research if something is "safe" to install. It is a little noisy but it is at least 5' away from my desk in my comm closet so it isn't an issue for me. Possibly could have saved some money with a diskless solution but call me lazy I have just a single manufacturer's warranty to keep track of. I recommend this to any SOHO business who needs a data solution on the cheap and is maybe a little paranoid.

I acquired this NAS storage device when I upgraded my Wi-Fi from a 802.11ac router to a 802.11ax router. My older router had a port to which I had connected a USB 3 drive, but my newer router lacks a USB port. At first I was reluctant to get into a full-blown NAS system with its own software, because I've been totally satisfied with a plain old USB 3 drive attached to my network. I didn't see the point of spending hundreds of dollars, and began by looking for a USB-to-Ethernet converter to plug my USB drive into an Ethernet port of my new router. But then I found a refurbished BUFFALO LinkStation SoHo 720. At around $300 it seemed very reasonable because it included two 2TB drives that could be run in RAID 0 or 1 configuration. Other NAS systems typically require purchasing the disk drives separately. Some of the reviews I read indicated that the software was very basic and not too intuitive to use. But basic was all I wanted, and I did not find the software difficult to use at all. This NAS also has USB ports for attaching additional drives, so I do not have to lose the USB drive I had been using. Win-win-win all-around; I am very happy that I acquired the BUFFALO LinkStation SoHo 720.

Setup was straightforward. (I have at least a moderate amount of computer and networking experience.) This unit is working flawlessly and quietly. Some reviewers have commented about noise on these. However, mine seems nearly silent.

Using this as a media drive for the different HTPCs I have in the house and it works perfectly!Came installed with two 4TB Western Digital Blue (IMO decent quality drives) hard drives. I changed the config so instead of configured as RAID 1 they're two distinct drives on the network giving me the full 8TB.The Buffalo NAS utility is lightweight and has no impact on system performance, installs easily and recognizes the drives without issue. The NAS itself performs well when wired to the router and the HTPCs connecting through WIFI. No buffering issues even with 4K video.

Good product and useful for sharing. with Microsoft torpedoing home file sharing, I had to do something to share files and photos with other PC's in the house. Thus this was the answer. It was straightforward to install and used without pass wording a share. However, I have not been able to put a password on the shares with any luck. Thus, me, wife, Mother-in-law and laptops have open access to all shares. I've put passwords on a share, but then it is inaccessible no matter whether it is me or any other computer in the house. I've exhausted every thing I could think of and even put the question on blog sites to no avail. Buffalo support is basically non-existent. The unit is still protected from the internet ok.

I've had this devices for a bit over a month and if you're looking for an inexpensive NAS, this is the way to go. I bought the 8TB version with 4TB usable in a Raid1 array. I had some problems early on, and did a factory reset and rebuilt the array to correct everything. The device is working fine and I have good throughput from my laptop (wireless).It would be a bit better if it had a wireless connection available for it, but that isn't a deal breaker for me. The cabled connection is fine and provides good throughput. The interface is a bit underdeveloped, but functions well enough - especially for the average home user.Good value, great storage (since it comes with disk included). Minus one star for my initial setup problems and the underdeveloped interface.
