Buffalo CloudStation Pro Duo Network Storage NAS

Buffalo CloudStation Pro Duo Network Storage Review

" Hi-tech product lines are often updated in response to emerging technologies. Cloud services, being one of the latest trends, have already come to network attached storage devices. Unfortunately, NAS makers are a little vague as to what benefits they bring about and what new usage scenarios they make possible. So, we are going to see what Buffalo Technology offers in the way of cloud services by checking out its CloudStation Pro Duo. Last fall we already tested a dual-disk LinkStation from the same maker and were pleased with its low price, reliable platform and functional firmware. Judging by the exterior design and specifications, the new model is different from its software aspect only. The CloudStation series consists of three models varying in the number and capacity of preinstalled HDDs. "

" Buffalo's LinkStation Quad has been kicking about for a fair few years, and outwardly, you'd be hard pushed to distinguish between a 2008 model and the one that's available on store shelves today. The chassis is practically identical, but while the exterior hasn't changed, the inner-components of this network-attached-storage (NAS) server have been revised to deliver greater performance and higher capacities.
