Exactly same as described in Amazon. Super easy to setup and worth buying for those who are new to network attached storage (NAS) product.

I love Synology products A LOT, I use them all the time at work... but they tried to dumb down the BeeStation for the masses, and ended up just making it too hard to use for anyone who knows what they're doing (Ironic, right?)It REQUIRES a public-facing cloud account to use it, the responsiveness of which was.... not very responsive. And having it be a normal shared drive on your local network was NOT turned on by default, and very difficult to try to turn on! (Thanks to the non-responsiveness of the cloud interface).Synology, I love your NAS's to death and will swear by them forever, but this BeeStation product is a big fat swing and a miss.

Works flawlessly on W10, W11, and Linux for a single user (my case.)Might get complicated if you try and share multiple accounts.For Linux, view the configuration under Windows to get the user name.

This plug-and-play private cloud storage device was easy to set up. While a bit expensive initially, I thought it was a good long-term investment. I had some initial upload issues the first 48 hours after installing, but a Synology firmware update fixed them quickly. Upload/download speeds are good. I also connected the power cord to UPS for power outage protection and to protect against data loss.It's much easier to setup and navigate than my Synology NAS for simple file storage and remote access. I chose this one over other brands for the brand reputation and it's made in Taiwan. I'll eventually add a backup external hard drive to the second USB port as a backup instead of the external Synology Cloud storage option.

Pretty terrible.Says that it is "one click install" and works instantly with mac.Not my experience.Wouldn't immediately initialize. I suspect it had been returned by someone else and had to be reset. They had very minimal instructions for this.After installing, there is a limited couple of iphone apps to do basic file access.Zero instructions on how to set up with the mac finder as an external drive. Not even sure it is possible.Zero instructions on setting up for other devices such as an ipad or fire tv to access it.This is probably a return. For a product that advertises "ease of setup" this is a real failure.

So much more storage and so much easier to access my photos and videos. So far works well for what we need. Takes some time to fully upload what you’re looking for but the ease of finding what you need is worth it!

The Synology BeeStation is fantastic - extremely easy to set up and use. Have used Synology products before, I found this one just as intuitive and user-friendly. I truly believe anyone could navigate it with ease. The only downside is that I wish it can in larger sizes than 4TB, but overall, it’s top-tier product! Highly recommended.

サイズが小さくスペースが取らない。知識が不要初心者も簡単に設定できる、数分で使えることができる。大切なデータは携帯やパソコン等からアプロードすることできるし、8人まで別々でシェアすることもできる。4TBのデータのみなら十分なNASと思います。

Extremely easy to set up... Up and running in less than 10 minutes. The actual storage capacity is 3.5 TB... I bought one over a month ago for my wife and I and liked it so much, just bought another one for my two teenage kids who take lots of photos. The Beestation Photos app is like using Google Photos with out the yearly subscription costs. I figure this will pay for itself in three years.

Been looking for a replacement for my Apple Time Capsule to backup for a couple Macs at home. Tried a WD My Cloud EX but could never get to work with Time Machine. The Beestation was easy to setup and seems to be working very well. Backups are fast and the device itself is unobtrusive and quiet. I wasn’t confident I be able to set a conventional NAS plus they are significantly more expensive seemed like overkill for my purposes. The Beestation seems like a good compromise and comes from a company that are very reputable.

This is a great backup device for simplicity.The instructions are extremely clear into how to set everything up with scanning a QR code.Everyone complaining that they can't get the device to work is likely just impatient from the slightly long initial startup time. This additionally works with Mas OS Sequoia. Everything was seamless during the update.If someone says it doesn't work with an OS update, they likely did something else to cause their issue.The BeePhotos and BeeFiles app are great. BeeFiles is similar to google drive, where it can sync to a folder on your device. BeePhotos is basically a toned down version of google photos. There is unfortunately no dark mode on these apps.It is extremely easy to share files and albums between users. My one complaint is the link will open up the album in the web, versus in the beephotos or beestation app. Hopefully this will get addressed, but it is not a huge issue.Time Machine works great, which is the primary reason I got this machine.While this doesn't work with a Plex Server, you can view the files locally on a device and a tool, such as VLC and such.This is useful for viewing home videos and photos.The one downside to this device is that it only runs off 1 drive, where many NAS drives will have 2-bays.I recently purchased an external drive to act as a backup device so I don't solely rely on the beestation and the one drive.I will try and update my review after I report how my solution works.

I thought this would have been an easier solution to backing up our phones that the DS File and DS Photo app from the Synology NAS. Boy was I wrong. This is just a drive with those two crappy apps rebranded as BeeHive Photo and file. They are the same under the hood and don't work worth a pinch of crap. So, save your $$.
