Reviews of the Seagate BlackArmor NAS 440 (6TB)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Seagate BlackArmor offers fast throughput, hassle-free remote access, excellent backup solutions, and has many customization options. Also, its large amounts of storage; RAID 5, RAID 0, RAID 10, and Span support; toolless design; and great expandability will satisfy most small businesses.
The Bad: The Seagate BlackArmor requires more than basic networking know-how to take advantage of its advanced features. Also, it lacks port aggregation, has scant instructions, and may not be compatible with some routers.
The Bottom Line: Although Seagate BlackArmor is difficult to use for networking novices, it is a good choice for small business and advanced users.
