Hi, thank you for your reply.
I know that the LinkStation Quad is not a commercial grade product but having something like this seems like a no brainer. The requirement that the UPS is connected only to the LinkStation is somewhat unreasonable, in my opinion.
I can understand that Buffalo can't add support for all the UPSes out there, which is why I would have thought that it [Buffalo] would have provided some way to signal the LinkStation so users can attempt to prevent data loss in case of a power failure. I guess, I am disappointed...
Considering that the LinkStation already has a full-blown webserver running on it, it shouldn't be that hard to add a small XML-RPC server or something similar to provide such functionality. Does Buffalo accept request for features in future firmware releases or has firmware development for these products been frozen?
Thank you for you reply.
