Der Samsung lässt sich sehr gut ins Netzwerk einspeisen dun hat dabei zahlreiche Funktionen parat, wobei er allerdings einen NAS mit seinen vielfältigen Features nicht übertreffen kann. dennoch ist das Modell gut aufgestellt und kann auch via WLAN kabellos Daten abrufen. Allerdings ist die Festplatte für HD Aufnahmen vermutlich etwas zu knapp bemessen.
