History:I have a DS409 on gigabit network and averaged 18-29mbps with apple time capsule (latest version) and was looking for faster speeds to support my photo library, 4 ip cameras, and media streaming. I was sick of the slow speeds and bought the ds411 when Amazon had a rare 10% off sale.
Pro's
FAST - Not unusual to hit speeds over 90MB/sec.
Firmware 3.0 is very good
Same construction as ds409 with 1 minus
Cons'
Speed fluctuates for some reason. I have tried jumbo/no jumbo frame and now switched to a DLink 8 port router. I will get between 40-95 MB/Sec. I would say it averages 70MB/sec and the only way I get it into the 90's if I copy from multiple drives. I have a fast setup and not sure why I'm seeing slower speeds then some of the online reviews using windows devices.

Loss of USB port in the front. This is actually a little annoying as I used 1 usb for UPS, 1 for a fireproof USB hard drive for key documents and then 1 for backup. Now I'm using a esata hard drive for backups.
I'm a huge fan of Synology and find it so much easier then the HP Mediasmart center I returned. Synology iPhone apps are great and I have had NO problems.
