Pros: I have three older hard drives just sitting around, I put them in and have been testing them to see how this unit would react, so far not one hiccup. I’m going to add four Seagate IronWolf Pro ST10000NE0004 10TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5″ Hard Drives later this week. If all goes well, later I’ll add my second TR-004 to my TS-253Be. (according from Qnap Two TR-004 is the max you can add to compatible Qnap Nas systems) Cons: Not really a con, Four bay unit. Add four drives to start out with. You can’t add more drives to expand your raid automatically. Overall Review: Inexpensive unit to buy got mine for $199.00 Newegg. I would recommend buying the best high end drives, this unit will treat them well.

Overall Review: Work right out of the box for single configuration. Have not tried any raid yet until I populated all 4 bays.

Pros: -Easy setup.
-Good software.
-Hardware RAID is easy to use.
-Quiet.
-Maintains good temperature. Cons: -Seems “flimsy”, especially the drive trays. Overall Review: I would recommend this to anyone looking to increase storage on a budget. I loaded it with 4 8TB WD red drives and connected it as a DAS for a home network/htpc. Thus far it is working flawlessly.

Pros: Holds 4 Drives.
Reasonable DAS (Direct Attached System)
RAID 0,1,5,10
JBOD
Windows and Linux detected the device without requiring drivers being loaded. Cons: Only software you can use with this is the QNAP External RAID Manager
Does not support S.M.A.R.T over USB
QNAP External RAID Manager is useless if a drive fails. You get a big fat connect a device.
QNAP External RAID manager doesn’t support a full S.M.A.R.T readout or allow you to do S.M.A.R.T tests
You have zero control really to monitor the heath of the drives it holds. Overall Review: They really push this being used with their QNAP QTS software as a DAS connected to their software.
That is basically as NAS O/S on its own. If you opt to use Linux or Windows vanilla/minimal, you have zero control over any health monitoring of the drives. You can only
So if you buy this. Be aware at the time of this write up you will have no way to monitor the drives health or be able to even do a RMA with the drive manufacture to tell them what smart attribute has failed.
I would like them to enable full S.M.A.R.T data reporting at the controller level and/or software side.,
Give us the ability to read the S.M.A.R.T on the drives while the TR-004 acts as a DAS.
Email support feature if the device software detects a smart attribute(s) change
I already took my suggestions up with QNAP support and they really didn’t seem to care.
All my WD4003FZEX-00Z4SA0 are detected at 3Gbps rather then 6Gbps
Windows Disk Management will not allow you to use its build in RAID function with this device even if you have the hardware or software set to JBOD , Same applies to converting to a dynamic disk.
Overall. This should have been cheaper for what it currently actually does. I kind of regret buying this.
I even bought a Intel NUC to manage this as the other “NAS rebuild solutions” sucked and i’m not in the market for a enterprise solution ether.

Overall Review: Works great. Shows up as a regularly mounted drive. Have been able to push 180-200MB/s file copy to the drives via the USB connection.

Pros: The product was easy to set-up for someone like me who is not a computer expert but with an above average level of computer knowledge. Cons: I haven’t encountered any problems; the product works exactly as described by the company as well as in numerous reviews. Overall Review: After two weeks of usage I’m still very satisfied with this product. Prior to installation novice users must take whatever time they need to acquire basic knowledge on RAID technology. This is essential to properly configure the device.
