Does the Terramaster F4-424 NAS have an internal USB port (like the F4.423) that can be used to run UnRaid?

I am curious on what the max amount of RAM possible for a ds723+ is? I am going to use some off-brand sticks to upgrade, and was wondering if 64gb was possible.

Hi I am new to the forum and Nas world. I have been following you on YT, I am currently using a 2020 WD 6TB My Cloud EX2 Ultra with 6tb. I am using mainly for streaming Flac file music for streaming, photos docs etc and mobile, latop backups. My question is I am I want the ability to future proof as best as I can. Also can I use my existing Nas or drives WD30EFRX-68EUZN0 in the new DS Nas. What would be the best cost effective solution and I need drives what should go for ? Thanks

I am really interested in the Aoostar R7 and upon adding it at check out on AliExpress, it doesn't add VAT (I'm assuming due to the fact that the item is above £135). I was therefore wondering what your experience is ordering such items on AliExpress in terms of UK Customs.

I look forward to hearing from you

Hi looking to build a low profile nas for media streaming. Have a couple components left over from a previous pc build that I would like to reuse to save cost.
These are AMD ryzen 3400g and a evga gtx 1660 black edition any advice or help would be great.

I have recently replaced hard drives in my ds918+ and want to sell the old drives on. How do I prepare them so they are ‘empty’ or should I have done something to them when they were still in the Nas unit?

Hi!

Happy New Year! I am a tech guy and enjoy your content on everything NAS a lot.

I am currently using a Synology NAS DS413j which I bought back in 2013 and am finally going to upgrade. I actually went and bought a DS923+ and was hoping to make use of it as an Emby Media server. I didn't use my previous NAS for anything other than media serving but wanted to step up to using Emby instead of Audio Station and Video Station. I am concerned though that I may have made the wrong choice!! My videos are either MKV, MK4 or MP4 (I think that is it) and my audio is in FLAC and MP3...

Did I make a mistake? Will it work for my use case? should I upgrade the memory and if so, can I get by with using memory other than Synology?

Appreciate the free advice! Thanks, John

Drive Space

External: 11tb - 465gb free

I currently have plex loaded on a dell 730xd with an md1400 raid array, plus a Synology DS1515+ for additional storage. I want to get rid of the server and either get an expansion for the current synology with 150tb total, or sell it all and get a new synology if the one I have cannot handle transcoding 720 externally for my 14 friends, and 1080p for me internally.

Hi, we are looking to create a hone network using NAS to service 1 pc, 1 Mac, and 4 phones. The main goal is to upload all family photos/videos in one place that that is secure, can be backed up and has an easy user interface so we can find photos easily on our phones.. We have many actual pictures that would need to be scanned and uploaded, so we would need someway to tag the photos either such as facial recognition or AI.

Not sure about space requirements but we have 2 teenagers that take lots of videos and pictures on their phones so would need space for that in addition to having space for the family photos as well.

Thank you,
Ann

Hello,

I want my family members to have access to my nas but me as admin I don't want to have any access to their files or account I only should have access to delete their account. And I also don't want to share any folder with them I want them to access the nas and make their own folders without me knowing which folders they have created and what files they have uploaded.

Kindly advise if this is possible and if so please provide detailed instructions cuz in user group I've noticed I can't uncheck "everyone" option. I want each person to be on their own me as admin only want permission to modify their account like increasing their usage limit and option for me to delete their account.


thank you. Looking forward to your reply
