I have used a lot of network hard drives in the past but Buffalo is the first one I have ever used that went bad with in a year of being plugged in and was never used. We put it in the job to store music for a streamer that was going in. Because of the customer traveling it was over a year before we were called back to hook it up. When we went to set it up it was locked up at to my surprise had no power switch or reset button. Everything is done though the network and if it can't access the network it is pretty much a paper weight. I have remote drives I have been using for or 6 years with no problems and yes I know they go bad but in one year with a UPS, Whole House Surge Protection and a Generator. So is it just me or has anyone else have products for Buffalo they have had problems with.
