Cons Certain, impending drive failure.
Once a drive fails, access to data is lost, even when mirrored.
'Support' really means "replacement drive shipping service".
Often unable to log into "award winning" support site. on February 1, 2012 by mofriedbiscuits  | Read full review

Cons Runs very hot and the fan is close to useless. In fact the first one I got the fan didn't work at all so I sent it back and got a replacement. The extras e.g. the backup software is a bad joke. You can't go back and change the settings. on September 25, 2010 by JohnSmall  | Read full review

Cons runs hot, proprietary replacement drive - $300USD for replacement drive (price given by iomega support - 07/2010). Warranty only good for 1 year. on July 30, 2010 by Professional_IT  | Read full review

Cons Poor, expensive support - AFTER the purchase. Beforehand, lots of info offered; too bad it didn't work as promised. Repeatedly 'removed' itself from our network, somehow. Finally would do anything but spin. IT cannot retrieve our vital data!!!! on May 11, 2010 by teamCDI  | Read full review

Cons Non-user servicable drives.
Flakey software. Says it does torrents. Can't make it work. Says it's a print server. Won't work for my Hp printer. on April 8, 2010 by fullerjrgmail  | Read full review

Cons My device had a catastrophic failure where both disks were inaccessible. That defeats the purpose of RAID. Iomega honored the warranty and is in the process of replacing the device, but all the data on the device is lost. on March 2, 2010 by lhcassidy  | Read full review

Cons After disk failure, the unit was no longer accessible. Had to put the working disk in an USB enclosure and mount it on a Linux machine to recover files. Essential feature (RAID) proved useless! on January 27, 2010 by machenk  | Read full review

Cons Scheduled Retrospect backups fail routinely with obscure and unhelpful error messages, software interface demands passwords even when none are set, post-installation modifications are next to impossible. on June 27, 2009 by lwfunk  | Read full review

Cons When using Active Directory, Tech Support tells us that "the device is happy around 25 users. outside of this issues can experienced." on January 22, 2009 by brigc  | Read full review
