QNAP TS-269 PRO NAS Review

Once the wizard has completed the initial configuration of your new NAS, you are quickly redirected to the web GUI.  The interface hasn’t changed from other models and everything is right where you’d expect it to be.  Administration is as easy as 1,2,3.  Adding users, groups, and shares can be accomplished in a matter of minutes.

Administration is broken down into 10 major sections.  All of which have a number of subsections with tons of configurable items.
