Price looks intimidating, Not so high transfer speeds with RAID 6/5 arrays, Long boot time (>5min), No USB 3.0 support (QNAP just informed us that all new TS-x19P models will have USB 3.0 ports), Short warranty

97 / 89 MBps best read/write performance, System software is SOTA and continually updated, Support Apps available for multiple cloud services, Support App available for Mobile access, VMware Ready iSCSI for virtualization deployments, Online RAID Capacity Expansion and Level Migration, Hotswap RAID storage, Dual Gigabit Ethernet with teaming and failover, RAID 0/1/5/6/10/JBOD disk config
Write speeds in RAID 5 still limited by the installed computing power, USB 3.0 ports not included, only USB 2.0, A few advanced capabilities will be too daunting for a novice SOHO user, Many consumer HDDs not suitable for RAID, and enterprise units are $$$
