Title: What good is a NAS if you can't access the files remotely?
Review: As an external disk drive that you use attached to your local machine, the drive will serve your needs well. But if, say, you wanted to use this drive as a NAS for a network of any size, this drive fails miserably.Why is that?This drive includes mandatory DRM features that make it impossible for more than one user to access certain files. Among these files are video files. It doesn't matter if you created the files yourself; if the file fits within the pre-defined scope of what is "banned from sharing" you're not going to get the file. Back to SneakerNet... or you can "fool" the drive by naming your file from file.avi to file.avi.txt... but why is this necessary? For what am I buying a NAS for if I have to jump through hoops?Complete waste of money. There are other NAS solutions on the market that are loads better than don't come saddled with mandatory DRM installed into the firmware of the device.
Is the review positive or negative?
