Basic Information:
1. Small Medium Business hosting cross-border into Mainland China from Hong Kong
2. Never used a NAS before so no need for virtual machines and other bells and whistles
3. Need reliability in terms of reliability & safety of data
4. Around 10 people would be using. High quantity of clients requesting file sizes around 5-6mb each

Questions:
1. What hard disks should I get?
2. Is RAID 6 the best?
3. Drobo has its itnernal battery feature, should we get the UPS?

I need NAS only for multimedia which stream on my smart tv and for some minimum data backup which is some HD videos and Photos. I’m thinking for Synology DiskStation DS218 can you please help me out which is better for me
Thanks you.

Discuss: How to Install Ubuntu on a Synology NAS

Hi, I would like to increase the RAM in my 251D from 2GB to 4GB by inserting another 2GB stick, but must I buy the expensive QNAP RAM for this, or can I buy, the MUCH cheaper, RAM from somewhere else, as long it has the same specs of course? Thanks

I’m Looking for some advice before I go purchase my Nas system to run my Plex Pass and Home Surveillance System witch I will buy after. Looking to record all 4 cameras on the nas. I’m looking to buy Synology DS418play at $599.99. I’m going to use 4 Seagate IronWolf Pro nas ST6000NE000 6TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drives at $289.99. x 4 = $1,159.96 It comes with 2GB DDR3-1866 memory, which I plan on adding a Synology RAM DDR3L-1866 SO-DIMM 4GB (D3NS1866L-4G) sat $119.96 to make 6GB. Will this all run fast and work or do I need more. After watching lots of your videos am going to use SHR. I am looking to add a Synology M.2 Adapter Card (M2D18). I see online that using ssd to run my caching and transcoding will keep my system from bottle necking and buffering a lot. Or can I use an external 2tg hard drive to run the metadata / thumbnails. I’m not a tech guy at all, anything I learned here was from watching your videos. (Witch are great, and much appreciated.) I’m looking to spend $2,000.00 and need it to last for a long time. Thanks for any advice. Tim.

Have a DS212+ that I'm growing very impatient with and very much appreciate your informative reasoned thoughts even when understanably speculative.

btw: I'm probably going to wait for DSM 7 (DS22x+), not for what it can do when released, which probably would work with a DS218+, but for what it may be able to do in 6 years that a 218+ may not be able to do. Plex and other apps won't run anymore on my 212+.

Also, I have been unable to find meaningful information on performance, even from Synology on the difference in a 218+ vs a 212+. I see hardward specs, but what I want to know is when I open something like file manager, will I still have time to go get a cup of coffee or will there be a maeingful, not incremental, improvement.

Again, thank you.

Is DS120j enough powerful to use Cloud Sync without any issues or limitations ? My main goal would be to use the NAS to access my files like an external drive connected to a router and also to do the sync job without having to let my laptop running all day long. I wonder if the more powerful DS220j would be a better choice but I don't think I will use any Raid levels.

What is "Maximum number of files carried" ? Is it the maximum number of files I can move/copy/cut at a time ?
