Lots of connectivity options (USB2.0/USB3.0/eSATA/HDMI), Supports JBOD, RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10 and Single Disk Volumes, Display on unit lets you see network settings, alerts and more, So many options, Much cheaper than the competition, Media Server / Me

Good performance, Abundant array of features, USB 3.0 connectivity, Competitive pricing
Not as refined as some of the competition, Fan noise can be bothersome

When you are looking for a NAS with lots of features and outstanding performance, but can't afford the Synology and QNAP models, then the Thecus N5550 is an excellent alternative. The products by the aforementioned NAS makers may be just a little pretti...
