First of all I was very disappointed about the firmware that was not updating, spitting out a message like
Ok I found how to fix it. Simple, a bug on that version of the firmware that was unable to update correctly to latest firmware. Downloaded last version of that major firmware, updated and then updated again to the very latest one.Failed to update system. A flash read/write error occurred. Error code: FW004
Hours spent for nothing.
I bout QNAP because I remember it was the ROLLS ROYCE of NAS devices, everything was almost perfect and the installation was clean and fast.
Ok I set up my nas, configure everything. It is terrible SLOOOOWWWW, of course there are thousands of services that I DON'T need and many of them are not stoppable or removable.
Is it so difficult to get back as in the past where the NAS was a NAS and I was able to ADD services only when needed??? I spent more than a day to remove o stop unwanted services and today the network share and web admin panel was unavailable for about 30 min because NAS was doing "something" that was taking 100% of resources...
Snapshots? good thing! but why don't leave them as an option? what about if I don't need them because I need a larger storage and no snapshots?
Unbelievable that I have to spend so much time to remove things I don't need.
This doesn't mean that I don't use all services, one of my nas is dedicated to streaming services with dlna, other to data storage only and another one to web services. But I was able to install services as well as i needed them, not to remove all the ones I don't need.
It's a waste of time.
Probably my last qnap...
