Main Page

Welcome

This community-driven site is geared towards Buffalo Technology/Melco's amazing Network-attached storage (NAS) devices called the Linkstation, Kurobox and Terastation. Notice that this page is totally unrelated to the producer. There are currently several models available, so click on the links on the right to find out which variant you have.

There are several custom firmwares such as Debian, Gentoo, Foonas, and Openlink that will give you unix shell access to your device.
