Seagate Business 4-Bay 16TB NAS Review @ NitroWare

I read somewhere that QNAP and Seagate are now partners in the NAS space.  It really makes a lot of sense considering that Western Digital has their own NAS devices and consumers can use either drive in an ASUSTOR NAS.  The question is, does having a personal NAS device really help you embrace the "cloud" or can you get the same performance from an internal application server.

*hint* they are the same thing.

It's all about the private cloud...

Seagate is relatively unknown for Network Attached Storage and have tried to add their own twist via unique features for their consumer and business oriented models.  However, like competing devices, NAS are heavily reliant on hardware specifications to perform as advertised. We review Seagate's 16 TB model for Business and explain why processing power and fast interfaces like USB 3.0 matter for a storage device

Based on the first page of the review and screenshots of the setup page I'm not sure they really like the device and the second page was simply too painful.
