Discuss: QNAP TR and TL Expansion Range Explained

Hi, I am looking to buy a QNAP because some models can have their CPU expanded. Which I want to upgrade to an i7. There’s another catch I want to be able to use QTS Hero. What QNAP models do you recommend pal? Thank you in advance.

Hi Rob ,

I am a fan of you in your youtube review. I actually bought the QNAP TS-453A partly on your review.


Right now I have a TS-453A with 8 GB and certainly cannot cope with what I like to do.



1. Can this unit accept standard RAM (say Crucial) so that I can upgrade it 32 GB. Can the existing 2 x 4GB be used with 2 x 16 GB RAM?

2. I intend to use the server for container technology. Will this be able to work with this use-case with 40 GB ram. The container will act as say a git server, plex server, linux server.

3. Can the container have 64-bit machine, that is the cpu must be 64-bit registers?

4. Have tried using the integrated Radeon for calculations?

5. I you have not, do you think it will work for the above use-case ?

6. Is this unit fast enough to stream 4k video files. The TS-453A I have cannot do the job.

As I am about to pull the trigger on this a speedy answer will be much appreciated!!


Cheers, Ric

I want to update RAM on my new Ts-251D

2 Questions
1) Can I only upgrade upto 16GB?
2) if yes, do I need to get 8 X 2 like https://www.newegg.ca/crucial-16gb-260-pin-ddr4-so-dimm/p/0ZK-0070-00010?Item=9SIAFETB754461

Hi

I am looking for a professional advise please

I already have 2 laptops at home, yet none have enough HDD space of course to back up my data, specially movies, so now what i am looking for is long-term solution for my data storage where i dont have to worry about losing data after some time, and strong transcoding for 4k movies to show on my tv.

I have been considering many options, and find that NAS is better solution, however, i am annoyed with the fact that NAS considered a laptop as well and i already have 2 laptops

do you recommend having buying NAS device? or you can suggest different solution?
And if NAS. which one is the best for streaming 4K movies on my TV, preferably 2 bay one.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

cheers,
Karim
