What customers say
Professional users highly praise this QNAP 6Bay unit for its exceptional performance, especially leveraging Thunderbolt 2 for demanding tasks like 4K editing. The robust hardware and flexible DAS NAS iSCSI architecture establish it as a powerful central hub for creative workflows. Reviewers value the seamless transition between direct attached speed and network access. However, sentiment is slightly tempered by the complexity of the QTS operating system, which presents a steep learning curve for less experienced users. Furthermore, the premium price and reliance on older Thunderbolt 2 technology cause some to question its current value proposition against newer standards. Overall, those who master its features find it delivers professional reliability and speed.
