Anyone using one of these? I'm looking for setup tips. Documentation seems a bit patchy.

Milko has one, iirc. I keep meaning to get one but haven't gotten around to it yet.

In what way is the documentation patchy - is it not a standard Linux-based system with extra NAS stuff on top?

Allegedly, except it's got a remote admin app Qfinder that you use to initialize it. That's where the documentation is patchy, if you don't go with the default RAID 5 (I want to do 10). I did post a query on their forum earlier.

Ooh, already got a good answer too

Mild autism at a guess.

Not that mild. He's managed to piss off quite a few QNAP customers.

Plus what Dan said.

Happy to report setup was a breeze (thus far), apart from a port trunking snafu where I had to hit reset to be able to find it on the lan again (didn't realize our new managed switch supports static trunking until I read the datasheet; it wasn't mentioned in the manual).

Heavy lifting to come.

Yeah after rummaging around a bit I can see where he would.
