Hi Team,

Appreciate your YouTube channel and knowledge.

Been building a GeekPi Home Network rack with jetkvms for Mac minis and xgs wifi and gateway fiber and the planned Pro XG 8 PoE Switch.

most of the stuff I have ordered above except for the Pro XG 8 PoE Switch.

I cant find any information on availability or pricing...

Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated!

Thx,

Oliver

Hello, I am currently running a Dell Optiplex 3020 tower Intel i5-4590 with 12Gb Ram, one 500Gb SSD as main and two 4.5 TB for storage of movies and shows. The only use for this is Plex, I might have exhausted the space on the Dell and would like to entertain another option to store 2 additional 4.5 TB HDDs. I can still use this PC, I would like to have the ability to extend the storage space with additional HDDs. Any advice. I have no experience with NAS.

I found this offer on Kickstarter that seems to good to be true,
can you tell me anything about it's validity?

Hi Eddie/Robbie, need your recommendation of 4 bays NAS. Main usage is for photos and videos backup, sharing and access by the family members

Brands available in my country are Synology, QNAP, Terramaster and Asustor

Thank you

I bought a ASUSTOR as5402t and have about 4TB of data from multiple external hard drive I want to put on the nas. What is the best way to transfer that much data in the shortest amount of time? Looking for the best way to do it

Hi there,
I currently have an old QNAP TS-251A with 8GB RAM, and 2x 4TB drives in RAID 1. I have run out of storage space, and am looking to upgrade to larger capacity drives, as well as a faster NAS as I'm finding the TS251A just can't keep up these days.
I primarily use the NAS to back up photos, documents, etc. In the past, I was streaming Plex 1080p, but it just wasn't coping with anything above that.
I was thinking of upgrading to 8-12GB of storage, and I think the QNAP TS-264 looks good, albeit expensive (in Australia).
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hi there,

Hope you are well. I'm contacting you as I have a bit of a dilemma and particular needs. I'm trying to find a NAS motherboard for my build. I am looking for something that has the following:

10gbe (onboard or via pcie card)
6+ SATA ports
A seven segment display/DEBUG LED/postcode on the board
ECC memory support
A power and reset button on the motherboard itself
A socketed CPU would also be nice for upgrade purposes if needed
Micro ATX form factor for the Silverstone CS382 case

I don't really care about the price if I'm honest.
The motherboard that came close to what I'm looking for is the ASUS WS W680M with the only thing missing for me being the power and reset button that isn't present on the board.

Figured I'd reach out just in case you had any ideas. No worries if not!

Thanks very much!

Hi all,

Just bought in the Amazon spring sale a F8-plus.

Thankfully not got much data on there yet, but it doesnt appear to be recognising my accounts via the MacOS TNAS-PC software.

Nor can I open the web page on Safari/Firefox/

But I can connect and access my data (busy copying/moving it off the NAS before I have to consider a rest) via filemanager.

This seems a tad odd...

Oh I'm rather new here - must browse these forums more...

Anyway have a good Saturday

This is my first time to try Synology and I want your advice which type is better…DS423+ or DS923+ ? I want to have higher TB. Thanks!

Currently have unraid 7 with drives - 8TB and 3 x 4TB.

It is in a large tower that was a network server (IBM software) and is at least 10 years old.

Want to upgrade hardware
