Best price for this equipment!
Michael F. (verified owner) –
Price makes up for the EOL status which is fully disclosed. Shipped fast, fast but not always on point answers to questions. I bought one of these NAS units 5 years ago, and its been 24/7 since.
KRIS S. (verified owner) –
Great product, excellent price and exceptional customer service!
Ahmed D. (verified owner) –
The NAS is really good, even for an old modal. ParallelMiner service was okay. At first, my order got canceled for the exact product I ordered was out of stock (probably logistic issue). But after getting in touch with their support, I ordered another modal and it got shipped real fast.
George (verified owner) –
At first I did not receive the item as was scheduled. It was due to the failure on the part of Fedex. When the company (Parallel Miner) was notified about it, they immediately took action. Their responses were very prompt and their customer service is excellent. They were kind enough to send a replacement item by two day shipping. In the mean time, the original packet arrived. I would recommend this company to everyone. I am very happy with the way they handled the whole matter.
Joseph g (store manager) –
Hi George, I just check tracking 280969857700, something is not right. Please call FedEx tomorrow and get an update. If lost file a claim and contact me via our contact page. We will reship another one. Sorry about this

Instructions are confusing.

My ix2 arrived sooner than expected. Everything was included for setup. Had to resolve some microsoft network sharing issues as usual but otherwise setup was easy. The UI on this product is well organized and easy to use. It is working great, extremely fast access. I would highly recommend purchasing this product from Parallel Miner.

I am pleased with the item!

Came way faster than estimated: ordered Thursday, ordinary/free shipping said I’d get it Monday but received it on Saturday.
My first NAS, have been desperate for the space and 4 tb for $50 seems a really good deal. Two things tho:
– it is seriously loud when writing to disk, making me question its longevity
– the manufacturer is no longer in business, so there is no support to speak of. Further, any functions that rely on an external website — and there are many in the web GUI, including the basic set up — don’t go any where. You’re still able to set it up with the admin portal by going to its IP address.
