Quick and easy setup. Just put in the hard drive with the tool-less carriage, and insert into the bay, add ethernet and power, and you're off to the races, setup went smoothly and was at the gui in no time.
I purchased this unit to be a media server, and here's where the learning curve became quite steep, if you're not looking for rather sparse offerings of included apps, and download the community apps, a lot of configurations that needs to be applied, and your ability to google and browse the help forums is tested.
Fortunately, the forums on Terramaster's are active and the breadth of scope is wide, which means your issue is most likely addressed, but they are broadly grouped so searching for the right fix takes a moment. However, if you're somewhat tech inclined, this is a great piece of hardware.
I have yet to receive the NVMe drive for caching, but online videos do make it to be a simple process but will update when it arrives if any challenges arise.
