Is DS1522+ worth if cost 35% more money than DS923+ in my country?

Hello together

I need a replacement for my drobo 8D. Generally I was very satisfied with it, but I need more storage and Drobo no longer makes the impression of a future-proof brand ...
My system has just under 90TB and is almost full. At the moment I'm working with Thunderbold 3 and 1TB SSD cash and I'm very happy with it (except for the cable length). For the future I would like a system that can be expanded well. I like to work with the Seagate Iron Wolf pro hard drives - that's why I'm a bit critical of Synlogy's one brand mentality. With the Drobo I always appreciate the easy management and the use of different sized HDDs. I have looked at Qnap systems - but their website is a bit confusing ...

I would be very happy to receive a recommendation and advice from you.

Many thanks and best regards
Daniel

Hi

Thanks for all your video, that helps me a lot to understand and select which nas i need but i have a question.

I'm looking for the QNAP TS 264 but i think that 2 bays will be not enough for a long time keeping.
I checked the QNAP TS 464 but it less powerfull than his little brother.
So if I buy the TS 264 and in the future, add an extension like the TR 002 is this setup working well and more powerful than the TS 464 itself ?
Is there a lost or performance for RAID 1 with an extension ?

Thanks in advance for your answer and sorry if i made mistakes in my message i'm not english.

Rob,

I just purchased a $6K DELL Precision Workstation and I was told by Dell that their motherboards are now using the TPM chip to run Windows 11 Pro. Therefore this system cannot access my Local Network of Synology NAS since it insists on requiring me to sign in to Microsoft with my account email and a 6 digit PIN #.

The recent release of 22H2 is what made everything change.

It has something to with Certificates that come from the MS Azure Active Directory. I've spent a week trying to get his resolved with Dell only to have them take the system back and send me a Win 10 version.

Anyway I wan wondering what you know about this, and whether Synology is going to offer help. I can still access the drives though a browser, but its stated as NOT being secure.

Hello,

i am looking for my first NAS. It will be used as a surveillance system 6 cameras (5Mpix). i would like to install on the same NAS a virtual machine with Homeassistant used for smart home stuff. And some storage for photos.

Thank you

First, thank you for your youtube videos, they were a great help.

The issue I am having is how to map a folder we created to be accessed by the user at their own computer without having to login to the NAS application.

We used to have windows server 2012 that died on us, and we had a folder that was mapped on the desktop so we could access the files and upload new ones.

When I tried to setup the mapping as you shown on your video I am not able to find the map part

Can you please help?

We have a NAS F4-210

Hey! Love your channel, you guys do a great job and clearly know your stuff so I thought I'd ask the experts!

I have a new Drone company, we work for clients on a monthly basis and have to store their footage (usually 20GB/month/client). At the moment we use onedrive to store the footage and our business files, though we are only 6 month old company. I was looking for a NAS solution for better value for long term archive storage and we will also use it as a shared drive hub for the employees to all access and save daily files into. The drone footage can be 4K video, which I presume would need to be able to be streamed from the NAS if a client was accessing it. It would be good to have password protected folders in the NAS which different clients can access at will from our website too?

As we get more clients we can upgrade the NAS but at the moment we only have 2, so 4-8TB would be sufficient for a decent amount of time and the price seems to hike up in the 4 bay, 4K, 8TB+ NASs.

I am looking for my first NAS. I would like to use it as back-up for pc/phone, network drive, Google drive/photo backup, and Plex server.

There will be 4 users, maybe up to 6.

I think ECC RAM is preferable but I do not now how much would be acceptable (as minimum). If 4 GB more the adequate or is 8GB not nearly enough.

I've seen M.2 NVME drives as cache upgrade, is it really necessary and if so. How much would be recommended.

Hello!
My name is Miguel and my colleague and I are currently tasked with setting up a small pipeline for visual effects and video editing work at a small studio. I just wanted to get your opinion on the setup we are planning on implementing. We are planning on purchasing a Blackmagic Cloud Store (20TB) for our main storage and we would like to have multiple PCs connected to it. This Cloud Store comes with 4 10G ethernet ports but we were thinking of purchasing a 10G switch to connect to the Cloud Store and then at least 5 computers (Mac and Windows) connected to the switch. This would be a 10G setup for all devices. Is this the correct way to set something like this up? We would also want all the computers to see each other on the network since we could potentially be implementing a render farm in the future. Based on some light research I've done so far, I found the TL-SX3016F JetStream 16-Port 10GE SFP+ L2+ Managed Switch. At what point would we run into any limitations? TY!
