    Thanks, grabbed one of the 4tb cloud drives.

    Although there was a $2.70 handling fee for free shipping, still a great deal though.

    • easternculture on 24/02/2016 - 13:16

      no handling fee for me. Perhaps you paid via paypal and got charged a fee?

      • c0balt on 24/02/2016 - 13:19

        That was most likely it.

        Would probably be worth putting a handling charge in the description if paying via PayPal (if that's the case).

      Price drops happen, when a lower margin retailer gets a price drop from their supplier they pass it onto the customer, it usually happens without warning.
      This is how it works.
      Perhaps Harvey Norman is the kind of place you should be shopping in the future, they wont pass on the immediate price drop and when they do decide to they can give you money back because they had a 25%+ markup in the first place instead of 2-3%.
      Im afraid there is nothing unusual about the transaction you have mentioned.

      Other than what it can do, a 4TB SATA drive for around $135 is comparatively cheap compared to buying a drive outright.

      Seagate though

    • magic8ballgag on 24/02/2016 - 15:26

  • Jemz on 24/02/2016 - 14:22

    Has anyone done a cost/benefit analysis of running and maintaining a NAS at home for storing/watching movies and TV shows? I know it all depends on the type of NAS you buy but the initial investment seems very high as well as the chances of data loss and time maintaining the system etc.

    I'm currently running Sonarr & Couchpotato downloading via utorrent going into Plex on my main gaming computer with a couple of external hard drives. I don't know whether jumping ship to get a NAS is worth it in the long run with the way cloud computing and streaming services are advancing and their low cost. Or just run it from my main gaming PC (possibly getting some more internal drives) and letting it run 24/7.

    My main thing is I want all of my content from the one place. Currently steaming services has certain shows on them because they've bought the rights to certain shows so you have to purchase subscriptions to three or more providers to get a good variety of shows (including VPNing to get access to their US variants).

    Any other advice would be appreciated.

    • yht on 24/02/2016 - 14:39

      I guess it depends what you are looking for. Which one is more beneficial for you. I was also thinking about paying cloud. There is a risk that your data can be compromised and it takes awhile to download and upload. With you having the physical cloud storage, you have more control, faster pc download n upload, you can turn off, but with the risk of drive failing and no backup. I chose physical drive as only involve initial cost and more control.

      • Jemz on 24/02/2016 - 14:44

        Fair enough, I'm reasonably new to all of this but thanks for the info

    • tonyjzx on 24/02/2016 - 14:40

      Have you missed the bus on that one? Do you know this place has been crazy about Microservers for the last 5 yrs or so?

      You can retask and old machine, slap in some cheap drives, basicially $99 for 2tb or $130 or so for 3tb and run freenas or nas4free or even windows and you can serve to everyone in your home.

      Cloud doesnt mean shit to me if I want to hold HD or FHD content. I might have all the star wars movies or james bond or whatever series on my HDD in HD or better with 5.1 or better sound. You aint gonna get that with streaming.

        I do have an old Q6600 machine when I can put some drives in to do that but wasn't sure about the power consumption.

        I'm pretty new to the whole server scene and I keep seeing NAS' pop up on ozbargain and didn't know if it was the right path for me

        Thanks for the insight

          +1

          Yeah dont use a q6600. I have one. They use too much power to run 24/7. Hell I have a nas I made from a PC I found on council cleanup. Typically you only need low speed PCs. This one is a Celeron 1200 4Gb ram, 4 sata ports so you can run 4 drives, with about $500 worth of drives (eg. 4 x 3tb) you can have up to 12tb online. Cloud and streaming means nothing when you have 12tb in your house.

    Oh dear. Seagate are now calling a LAN connected drive, personal 'Cloud' storage? Talk about abusing buzzwords. A single hard drive, hence single point of failure does not a cloud make. I predict in the future we'll have many device users who are surprised they've lost all their data after uploading it to this 'cloud'.

    • Michaelz101 on 24/02/2016 - 15:07

      Usually with single bay drive they have a external backup snapshot of all your files zipped into a attached external portable drive. I know the WD Mycloud. But I upgraded recently into a Synology DS716+.

      Yeah I personally dont care about that stuff. All I really want to know is if the drive can be removed and used in a real nas.

      Thing is it relies on your network and your wireless router so if you cant set up stuff right, you're going to blame the drive.

  • trevor99 on 24/02/2016 - 16:37

    Raid 1 or mirroring is fine but risk of loss is still significant if it's in one unit, e.g. gets cooked or wet, etc. Backup should be stored in a separate location imo, therefore 4TB single is best value here for home use I'd say, even having it in a different area of the house will improve your odds.

    Great price for the 4TB Seagate Central. Bought a few for $299 each a few years back. Inside are just regular Seagate Desktop 4TB drives (ST4000DM000); I know because I took the drives out of the enclosure and put them in a Synology NAS

        They're just normal drives and Seagate have not designed for 24/7 use BUT they're going great for me so far, no signs of them dying yet. They've were used in the Seagate Central themselves for about a year and a bit, then I disassembled the units to get the HDDs out and put them into the NAS. NAS drives probably have more reliability and create less heat/vibration but the equivalent capacity is like 1.5-2X more. If your NAS OS can do regular SMART tests on drive then you'll be fine.

      This is a NAS. That is a hard drive connected to your local network. So you can access it from any and all computers on your network, at the same time.

      It's also 'cloud'. This product connects to the internet, and you can log into a Seagate website from anywhere in the world and access (read and upload) your files, similar to Google Drive/Dropbox.

      • ifuggedxyz on 25/02/2016 - 12:14

        Thanks for the explanation, StickMan.

        One technical question - is it advisable to connect the Seagate Central Personal Cloud Storage direct to the main modem/router? Or can I connect it to an EoP (Ethernet over Power)? I have my EoP in the middle of the house, and the main modem/router at the front end of the house. We spend a lot of time at the back end of the house, so we have been using the EoP since it gives better connection.

        • StickMan on 25/02/2016 - 12:20

          EoP isn't as stable as ethernet. So I'd recommend putting it where you will access it the most. If it's from cable-networked computers at the back of the house, then place it at EoP end.

      • tik tok on 25/02/2016 - 14:56

        Thanks man. Cheers.

    Its a fancy, buzzword laden name for a HDD that plugs into your home network, and is available for all PCs on that network. The "cool" cloud stuff happens when you're in the rest home and pull out your phone and show grandma pics of the kids from the HDD.

    tldr, its a NAS with software that lets your files be visible over the internet, something other companies, like Synology, have been doing for years.

      Sorry I am new to these stuff, but doesn't NAS have software as well for remote access and seeing your files while you are away?
