Hello. I used to have a QNAP TS-569 PRO who died recently...
So now i have to find a new one to mainly store my pictures and movie libraries. What NAS would you recommend between the TS-673A, TS-855X and TVS-H674? Budget aside as i'm really looking long-term.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I would purchase a DS925+ if I can set it up with Seagate drives without too much trouble.

Can you confirm it's easy/possible?

Thanks,

I just setup a 3x24TB shr1 volume in my new DS1825+. Since I will eventually populate it with more drive, up to 8, and larger (today it could be 28TB if I wanted), I am wondering how can I quickly and safely add bigger drives and convert to shr2. I understand that I need 4 drive minimum for shr2 and if I add less then 4 bigger drives I will lose space. My question is on the process to do it; I know how to calculate SHR1 & SHR2 volume capacity based on drives size.

I have a warning in my Data on my NAS. SSD cache group 1 is missing, but the datas is still accessable, because only SSD-caches with read only access use the cache groups capacity. We recommend that you remove all SSD caches, that allocate the capacity from this cache group, then create a new cache group. Can you tell me if I should simply remove the ssd cache then replace it back into the NAS to create a new group?
Synology Hybrid Raid(SHR) with data protection for 1 Disk Fault Tolerance.

I've bought a synology NAS DS223 with 2 2tb drives. I want to set it up in a bulletproof way so that I can run my mac time machine on it and also run a plex media server for all my music and video. Mostly music. I will also want to be able to access it once in a while remotely from work, but that is less important than being able to stream my music and video and having a safe backup.

looking for help pick the best nas under 500 for a plex server that can handle 4k. i have my drives for now I would like 4+ drive bays to expand later.

i have seen these options
QNAP TS‑464 4‑Bay NAS
TerraMaster F4‑424 4‑Bay NAS
UGREEN NASync DXP4800 4‑Bay NAS

From what I understand Synology isn't a good option for plex because they changed the way transcoding works

On page 2/3 for dh4300 set up it keeps saying starting system, please wait patiently

What are the tested/recommended memory modules for 925+?
I'm lookinf for 2 x 16GB, the frequency is 3200 as far as I know, right?
Thanks!

I just purchased the Synology DS224+ and I would like to increase the amount of memory in the system. The Official Memory Module is the Synology D4NESO-2666-4G. That would bring me from 2 GB of memory to 6 GB of memory and probably not enough to justify the cost. I would like to use either the Crucial 8GB DDR4 2666MHz CL19 CT8G4S266M or even better, the Crucial 16GB DDR4 3200MHz CT16G4SFRA32A. I have read where both of these modules do work with the DS224+ but I thought it would be best to ask for your opinion. In advance, Thank You!

on the sidelines for a long while since Drobo 5n died. what I am looking for is something that operates like it. I need it to be a NAS for mixed operating systems can connect to it. SMB for my Mac primarily. ability to segment "shares" Ala Drobo, dedicated spaces each for Time Machine back up, cold storage, and a windows machine back up. media server nice. but no necessarily a need. ideally out of the box and ready to go turnkey solution like Drobo since I personally do not have tons of time to dedicate to setting up and fiddling with a NAS. I would like this to have the Drobo capability to mix and match hard drive sizes to scale up when I need to /also having the Drobo data redundancy protection. long term, I would like to also rip/store my physical media collection to it.
