This thing ran slow for me, it seems to be how it works especially the first time you set it up. The whole experience was a waste of time anyway because this "backup solution" corrupted my data with the firmware update, so I can confirm the risk is there. Newer firmware may be better so if you get one of these follow the advice and link above. Check the support forum and see if there is a newer firmware available.
