[8 TB] I bought this diskless and installed a pair of HGST NAS DeckStar 6TB HDD as a RAID1 on a Win7 network. Have contacted Buffalo support a couple of times and could not disagree more with the dissatisfaction expressed by other reviewers: I had fast, accurate and literate replies. I use this as a strictly LAN device, no Torrent, no iStuff.

A positive is the USB port to which a backup drive may be added and the system can be set to do an automatic back-up to this drive (I'm security conscious and have a 6TB WD Red NAS mounted there and back-up is done very night and reported to me by email).

A potential issue in event of a hardware failure is the Linux OS as Linux formatting differs from MS, but the USB back-up mitigates this as it is MS formatted. Also, while fast enough for my purposes, the processor's speed may not be up to another person's expectations.

All in all, coming up to four years now, I'm very satisfied.

[ 3.5" HDD ] This item which I received quickly has performed just as I expected it would. I have zero issues.

[ 3.5" HDD ] It has up to 250MB/s speed, and it's enough for color grading in Davinci Resolve without interruptions (even the BRAW and Log formats)
If you use it on a PC, I recommend you to NTFS system and optimise it to not have any problem.
BTW: I have 4 disk of this model: 2 of 18TB (G Drive brand), 1 of 12TB and another of 6TB, and 0 problems with them

[8 TB] Exactly as described. A good price for a fully functional Windows IoT storage server. Quiet and powerful.

[ 3.5" HDD ] I bought it for the high capacity and low price. It's sturdy, easy to set up (just plug it in and rename it...) on my Mac. Flawless at this point. See me in 5 years.

[8 TB] How excited can you get about a hard drive -- unless your NAS Raid array loses a drive. After calling Buffalo (manufacturer of the NAS unit), they gave me the specs for the replacement. I was very happy to see B&H among the online retailers that handle these, and extremely happy, but not surprised, that B&H had a great price. Some vendors matched B&H but none beat B&H. The NAS unit is back up and running great.

[8 TB] Gritter is great product

[8 TB] I only installed it a short week ago. But my computer tech set it up for me and so far all goes smooth. I have another Buffalo as well and this one also runs well and smooth!
B&H is a respected company and I trust them since several decades. They are prompt in delivery and execute returns also very efficient.

[ 3.5" HDD ] I recently got the Buffalo TeraStation Essentials 8TB 4-Bay NAS Array for our small business, and wow, it's made a big difference! With 8TB spread over four 2TB drives, we've got loads of space for all our important files. Setting it up was super easy, which was a relief, and using it was straightforward, too. It's quick and reliable when we access our data, which helps everything run smoother day-to-day. Plus, it feels sturdy and well-made, so I'm not worried about it breaking down on us. Honestly, adding the TeraStation to our setup has been a great move for keeping our data organized and easy to get to.

[ 3.5" HDD ] These TeraStation raid arrays work well. Buffalo support is excellent. Email notifications are easy to setup.
