I appreciate the market place and how adding advanced features to NAS devices is the "norm".  However some of us just need a dumb simple reliable NAS device.  So instead of going through each feature and asking to have individual features turned off or on, it would be easier and certainly simplier for end users if we had an option that said...

 

Check here to have device be simple NAS storage device.

 

Checking the box turns off all the nice and fancy features and lets the NAS device be just that.  A networked hard drive for storage space that clients can access as setup in user/shares sections.

 

Fancy is cool and all.  I can assure you there is a market for simple NAS storage.  Does not seem like it would be that hard to have both in one product.   If you want fancy, you don't check the box.  If you want simple, you check the box.
