Have you heard anything about a RS1221+ replacement? I'm surprised Synology hasn't released a RS1223+ by now. I'm assuming we will get a 1224+ next year (or at least I hope)...

Thanks!

I am running a DSM 720, 2 bay and backing up 8 users, but space is filling up, how i can reset the back ups, to zero to start over. The synology web site says dont delete from folder, but i dont see method to delete in teh app.

I would like to reset by user and shorten the amount of time to hold files

My ST20000NT001 20TB drives were formatted NTFS on Windows 11 Pro. Task Manager reports their size as 18.2TB and Disk Management reports 18626.98 GB. Are my reported sizes correct for these 20TB drives?

At my home there is a DS920+ with an expansion unit. I am really satisfied with the DS920+, but i need some more storage. I have 4 slots open on the expansion unit, one slot is taken up by a single disk that serves the synology surveillance setup. I would like to expand the original pool over to the expansion unit and just add a few harddisks there, but online i can find conflicting information about how risky that would be if either the NAS or the expansion unit would stop funcioning. Would the whole pool be corrupted and unrecoverable? Or would i just be able to replace the expansion unit and continue as before?
I could ofcourse just set up a new storage volume just with disks that are located on the dx517, but that seems like a waste of space becouse of the extra redundant HDD i would need for that. I've heard you mention this quickly in one of your video's, but i cant find any deeper dive into this topic anywhere on the internet.

Thank you!

I liked your Asustor vids so much now I have two, but I can't seem to move folders full of data between them
They don't see each other on the network
I don't like moving huge amounts of data between them using my PC because it slows it down to the point of being unusable, even for my 8 core processor
How can I move data more effortlessly?
Please Help!

I have a Plex Server with data on 2 external USBs, now I am planning to have a 4 bay NAS with 48TB Raid 5 based.

- My first question is whether Plex Server easily read media data hosted on NAS via ethernet cable or data drives should be directly connected to server (SATA, PCIE, USB) to Plex Server ?

- Second question is whether is there any NAS available which has network connectivity and as well as direct connectivity via USB C ?

Hello There
I'm a new beginner and i would like to start from the very out of the box and starting from scratch to starting with 2 hard drives. I watch plenty utubes that were very helpful ,but a little assistance from some experts. Your help will be appreciate very much.

Thank you kindly

I'm looking at buying the QNAP 4 Bay NAS with 12TB Storage. Do you think this is a good choice for Plex. Also, I heard that QNAP has had some security issues. Is that still an issue? Thanks for your help.

Been using multiple portable drives for years now. As movies are growing larger in size and the drives growing older, performance is starting to slow. I've been out of the loop for a couple years so need something fairly simple to help get me set while I learn things. Been looking at the DS224+, but just want to know if that's the right thing for me, or if you may have a better suggestion.

Hi, I saw your video on Plex and the Synology DS423+ and it looks like it would fit my purposes. I'm a long time Plex user and and I currently have all media on a Synology DS418J and Plex server on my PC, along with Sonarr, Radarr etc. I want to move all media and servers to a new NAS but I'm not sure how to migrate from the current NAS to a new one without buying new drives and recreating everything. The DS418J is not an Intel chip and the Synology website says HD migration isn't supported? What path would you recommend?

Thanks!
