Hi

I currently have a TVS-h1288X with 8 10TB HDDs installed. We run to YouTube channels and shoot with multiple cameras at 4K and have up to 6 editors working simultaneously on Premier Pro. Over the past few months we have noticed a significant challenge with performance with lots of lag and error retrieving frame errors. The consensus from Reddit and other forums seems to be that this is too much for this NAS and we should consider upgrading. I'm not opposed to that and could use this one as a backup, but I wanted your advice on a solution. My assumption is we are looking at a Rack Mounted NAS now, I want something that is high-performance and will be able to handle 6+ editors working simultaneously

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello, I actually already have my NAS system all built up and have been using it for almost two years now. I'm very happy with it.

For context my NAS is a Synology DS923+ with 4x14TB drives, with 38.2TB of usable space.

My question relates to moving house with my NAS. I'm a USA citizen living in Germany, and I am about to move back to the USA this fall.

Is it safe to remove my drives from the NAS while it's packed into moving boxes? Should I remove the drives? I assume that if I remove the drives, I will need to properly label them and put them back in exactly the same slots, is that correct?

Thank you very much for your time.

Dear Sir,

I purchased the Eufy Outdoor Cam T8441X and planned to connect the network storage, but I didn't purchase any NAS storage till now.

It is important for me to confirm that this camera is compatible with the following NAS prior to purchasing it.

* Purchased Camera - Eufy Outdoor Cam T8441X

* Network Attached Storage (NAS) - WD My Cloud Home Network Storage Drive (Manufacturer No WDBVXC0040HWT)

https://www.westerndigital.com/products/cloud-storage/wd-my-cloud-home?sku=WDBVXC0040HWT-NESN

Could you please advise whether this camera is compatible with this NAS.

or

Can you please suggest Eufy-compatible NAS devices (NAS brand and model) to be used with Eufy cameras.

I think that would be more helpful.

Hi there,

First time buyer here setting up a Plex NAS for a family member. Plan is to shuck 18TB WD Elements HDDs (have 1 already), with the NAS being used for cloud storage also. I’m hoping to manage the NAS remotely.

Synology excluded for poor 3rd party hardware support (S.M.A.R.T)

Currently looking at the QNAP TS-464 4-bay. Do you know duration of software support?

Main concern with QNAP is security (ransomware). Angry Reddit forums suggest you can't connect a QNAP NAS to internet at all?

NordVPN (OpenVPN) is running on the home router presently, could Nord Meshnet be used with remote devices as a private tunnel, bridging VPN & to access internet safely? Any suggestions welcome?

Are there any good second-hand retailers for NAS enclosures, or would you recommend buying new? We could until Black Friday at the latest for a good deal.

Many thanks for all you do!

Kind regards

I bought in May F4-424 Pro, initial setup with 2 WD Red Pro 16TB each, upgrade to TOS 6.0.229-00147, after 2 weeks install WD Black 770 1TB as HyperCache. This week bought other 2 WD Red Pro and from yesterday evening I'm trying to expand storage pool (TRAID BTFRS). It's a slow work I think... in the first 2 HDD I have about 5TB of data and 10TB free. When will be concluded the adding of HDD 3 and 4? Terramaster support is not satisfactory in their answers, they want initialise all...
I hope (as in manual) to add HDDs with Edit Storage pool. In this process I stopped file services, indexing media, disabled all apps installed, but have HyperCache in use, have to cancel HyperCache? Thanks for your help if you can

Our GIS department deals with large image files as they build and create maps. The imagery files are obtained from a company that flies over our county and takes pictures of everything from different angles. As the imagery technology gets better the files the company delivers to us are getting bigger with the last flyover being over 4TB in size. With previous year's imagery, we have almost 6TBs of data.
The Terramaster F4-424 caught my eye after watching your review but I'm concerned about the OS security. The NAS would be internal only and not accessible from outside the network. If there is a better NAS for large image files and would be able to handle delivering their work projects I'd be open to any suggestion you can give me.

Thank you in advance. I love your content!!

I have about 6 TB data of personal data, mostly videos. Plus company data is less than 100GB.

I want to get DS1621+ with 3 * 4TB HDD, the main usage will be editing directly off the NAS locally using Final Cut PRO (Macbook PRO M1 Max 2021).

Hello from France.

I want to replace my too old synology ds213+ to truenas scale to store applications for home, and make a media stack + play with kubernetes.

i looked your video after first advices at work or from friends about u-NAS boxes, and i see your video about jonsbo N5 which is huge but seems really good to install (a long time i didn't build a homemade computer).

Budget would be limited (not the best period currently), then i'm thinking about a good base, even if maybe "small" at beginning, but i could increase later. At least disks and RAM (other parts must be in the base package).

the main apps
- media : will try jellyfish over plex i think (then a graphic gpu needed for transcoding ?), plus would try the radaar/sonaar things (seems a good multi app project to install
- i would try to transfert my huge dvd collection too (start to be damaged)
- HomeAssistant
- Home applications (wiki, traeffik, certmanager, dnsguard, game support tools, dashboard,....)

Loved your breakdowns of the Ugreen series as I was on the fence about Ugreen you convinced me that at least the hardware was worth it for the price.

I got in on the kickstarter and when it came time for fulfillment I was informed they would not ship FPO AE (military postal system) so i requested a refund.

I recieved a separate email from someone purporting to be from Ugreen requesting my Papyal details. This seems very scam like since I used my credit card on Kickstarter.

Do you have any points of contact at Ugree that could help since they have not responded to any of my emails.

This kickstarter campaign is seeming like a terrible idea for an established company and has soured me on the whole Ugreen line.

Hi!

I've been using your tutorial video for setting up Plex on UGREEN NAS, which is incredibly helpful—thank you! Could you please help me figure out how to navigate the PUID/PGID section on a Mac? I know I'll need to use Terminal, but I'm hitting a few walls. Thank you!
