Missing files on your Zonbu device?
Reading the forums, it appears as thought multiple people are loosing files. See here and here. I would suspect that either the file isn’t finishing being backed up to the Zonbu service, your upload speed sucks like mine perhaps, or your not connected to the internet. The internet has to be functional for the data to be backed up. Though I don’t know for sure, that’s just what I think. That is a good reason not to buy a Zonbu device, at least not the mini desktop, because it only has 4 GB of space, and every file is stored online. Backing up data over the internet can be slow, and buggy. Oh yeah and they talk about a cache on the forum.
Though I could be totally wrong, as I don’t personally own a Zonbu device. I don’t ever plan on purchasing one either, as my upload speed is shitty, and I don’t trust Zonbu to store my personal data on their servers. Guess I’d have to pay the full price for any of the systems, if I wanted one. Which I don’t.
Now, emarrello, you cannot install any software whatsoever to your Zonbu.
Quote from here.
Another great reason not to buy any Zonbu devices. Its based on linux, yet they are a total dick, and lock it completely down. Probably wouldn’t be to hard to “hack”, so you could install other software. I’m guessing its based on ubuntu. Would be fun to hack it, yet it isn’t worth the money to purchase it, for hacking.
If you know anything more about any of the Zonbu devices, or have one, feel free to comment below with your knowledge. I will edit this post to include valuable information.
