Power supply failure & resulting loss of 2TB drive
I unfortunately lost a 2TB hard drive in one of my 4 bays, after the power supply for this model gave out - seems that it works fine for a while, but in the long run, it is not a stable solution.
STRENGTHS:
Easy to use and install
WEAKNESSES:
Unstable (drives do not seem to like it much)
