Until they fix the broken support e-mail box (submitting a ticket generats and error cannot connect to mail.thecus.com) ...

Error: Cannot conect to mail.thecus.com

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE BUY THESE PRODUCTS!

PERIOD!

I should have listened to all the views that ended with "I'll never buy anything from these guys again" and "I wish I could return it".

Right now I have a $5000 brick in my server cabinet due to a hosed 2.0.0.1 firmware.

I do not run a big shop (23 1U servers) but this has been the first pre-configured server device I've purchased, and if this experience does not improve, the last.

What a painful and expensive lesson this is turning out to be.

Personally I've not had many problems with the device (or rather, all the screwups were mine) but we're a Windows shop and this thing runs Linux. Active Directory and Linux don't play well, although better than expected.

Our 1U4500 was meant to replace our flaky old Pentium 3 fileserver. In future, I'll ignore the dedicated NAS devices and just use 2U fileservers running the appropriate OS instead.
