Based on your recommendations and lack of new releases from Synology, I believe the 918+ is the correct NAS for my application.

My question is should i install HDD plus SSD Cache or just install SSD hard drives as my storage media.

Hi,

I'm thinking to buy a NAS, but i don't the better quality/price relation.

I wnat a NAS to store files, to store photos and videos and see them on my Tv's, to store the video from my Surveillance Camera and see real-time.

What is the best NAS for this? And i don't want to spend a lot of money

Thank you,

Hi! I am looking to buy 3 drives for RAID 5 setup. I am close to ironwolf series besides WD red NAS cause I've concerns about SMR WD drives. As far as I know Ironwolf series is CMR drives. I have an old PC and windows 2019 Server installed on. What HDD do you suggest for the setup?

Server setup Intel 4970K, 32GB RAM, 512GB Samsung 560 pro SSD .
Do you think is better a separate RAID controller than motherboard's ? Asrock H97 M killer fatal1ity

Thank YOu

I have brought a Qnap TS-251D and i was wondering what the maximum amount of RAM that you would install into it. I know that officially 8 is the maximum but i have read on your blog that people and yourselves have tried 16 and 32 but i was just wondering what you would reccommend. I use it for media servers and for plex streaming and transcoding and very soon there shall be four users using it.
