Review: Acceptable as a basic NAS, terrible as an application platform - I purchased this NAS with the intention of using it for both reliable storage and as a lightweight Plex server. My configuration consists of four 10 TB drives split into two mirrored arrays (RAID 1), so I wasn't pushing the hardware anywhere near its advertised limits. For the first few months, everything seemed fine. Then the software started falling apart. The biggest issue is that the Plex application simply stopped updating. No error explaining why, no meaningful troubleshooting tools, and no practical way to resolve it. Because Plex became too outdated, I eventually lost the ability to stream to mobile devices altogether. The operating system itself is equally frustrating. There is no useful way to monitor running applications, so after a reboot you're left waiting... and waiting... wondering whether Plex is still starting, has crashed, or is simply thinking very hard about life. Startup regularly takes close to an hour before Plex becomes available, and the interface provides virtually no insight into what it's doing. Storage management is another disappointment. Something as basic as monitoring storage quotas or getting meaningful information about space utilization is far more cumbersome than it should be. The hardware itself has been reliable enough. It still functions as a box that stores files, and that's the only reason this earns a second star instead of one. If all you need is network storage, it may be acceptable. If you're buying this because the marketing suggests it's a capable NAS with an ecosystem of applications like Plex, I'd strongly recommend looking at Synology or QNAP instead. The hardware isn't what let me down. The software experience did, and that's ultimately what you interact with every day. At the time of writing this review. I am currently 35 minutes into waiting for my plex app to finish booting in...
Review: extreme frustration. TOP secret code? - Little instructions. What there is confusing. Had to re install 'TOS5' 3 times; the first 2 failing to create the volume. Finally I got a raid10 array going, and was trying to arrange ssh access to the files. I could not place a public key on Terramaster, so any backup would be unworkable. The reason was the 'system partition, known as md9, was full! I am giving up. I also note that even AFTER the sync on the raid10 array, the disks kept clicking and clacking constantly. Can't be good for the discs OR power consumption. Email support is there but on a 24 hour cycle. They want me to prove that the array md9 was full. Enough. Returning.

### ⭐ Dont buy!!!! Buy a Synology instead
*by J***S on July 17, 2024*

Let me explain how terrible this is as a NAS Initialize NAS initially with 2 hard drives, seems to work but terrible transfer speeds. Then I add 2 more drives, it tells me it will take 1020 hrs to initialize the 2 new drives. I say to hell with that and pull the 2 new drives. NAS now can't be reached at all. Thankfully I still have the information backed up on other drives, so I pull the 2 original drives and delete the positions and format them... Guess what the NAS still isnt reachable. I power down the NAS for a week. I then power it back up, and turn off firewall, still unreachable. I then search the company forums for some troubleshooting guides, the basically amount to reinstall the NAS operating system after you have removed the driver's and powered down the NAS. So check and check, but can't reinstall the OS, because it still remains unreachable for some mysterious reason. I set a static IP address for the NAS thinking that might be the issue... Nope that's not it. Still unreachable. Start searching for a way to factory reset the NAS, nope company never made a way to do that. So now I'm stuck with a 5lb paperweight, that does the opposite of what a NAS is suppose to do.
