D-Link 2-Bay Network Attached Storage Enclosure DNS-323 Review

Over All Rating Reviews :

I am generally happy with my this unit. It was easy to configure and has good speed across my gigabit network. There are/were a couple of things which have been glitches for me, however.
I need to restart this unit every seven to 10 days because it stops permitting access to the drives. Pressing the power button does not shut it down, I have to cut power to the box. Once it reboots, everything reconnects and all is well for another week or so.
I had a hybrid network. Two PCs and the D-Link were connected to a netgear firewall/gigabit switch. No problems there. However, the wireless portion of my network was connected to the Netgear switch and I was never able to get those two PCs connected to the D-Link. They could ping it, but not connect to the drives. I've since gone to a Linksys WRT330N router and the wireless and gigabit networks are now running through one router/switch. The mapping problems are gone.
I was unable to connect by HP Laserjet 1000 to the print server. Files would download to the D-Link and accumulate in the queue, but never print. Apparently, this older printer is not compatible. I tried using a Buffalo print server and got the same non-result, so I don't think the 323 is the problem on this.
I get good file transfer speeds and setup was a snap. Hardware setup is simple and robust. Drive security/access is not completely intuitive, but is workable once you figure it out. All said, I had this guy up, on-line and formatting the 500 gb drive in about 15 minutes.
