  Slow qnap Nas ts-251?
Posted by: Enquiries - 02-28-2020, 03:37 PM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (2)

Hello,

I have an issue with my qnap ts-251 4gb ram - 3 tb that I've had for about 4 years. it feels very slow.
it takes about 10-15 secs to access the main desktop, then installing even a small app can take 5-10mins.
It seems to play Plex 4k fine, copying files to and from pc I get about 70-80mb/sec.
I have a 8 switch router 1gb/sec , a few days ago I setup a LAG setup on two ports and bonded the ports on the qnap but it didn't make any difference.

To be honest it's never been that quick, but lately it's gotten worse. Is it time to upgrade do you think?

ah btw I use the Nas for backup, videos and surveillance. the survellience records to second hard drive. the first is for apps/video/backup.

thanks alot

Paul

  Expanding memory?
Posted by: Enquiries - 02-28-2020, 03:37 PM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (2)

Hello, I am using a QNAP NAS ts-421. I installed 3 4TB disks on it (RAID5). My system says my memory is almost full. If I put an extra 4TB disk in, will that solve my problem?

One other question: how to I delete files on the QNAP? Do I just delete them from the and hopefully that will solve my memory problem?

Kind regards,

Deborah

  Beginner advice?
Posted by: Enquiries - 02-28-2020, 03:37 PM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (2)

Hello!

First, kudos for your site and the depth of knowledge you share, it's greatly appreciated.
I'm a beginner looking into nas and though it's hard to follow you at times, your work is incredibly comprehensive.
I am a mac user but comfortable on pc and would like to have a central place to access my image files as well as have storage for music, documents and some video.
Though I'm all for plug n play, I like to customize my setups so I was leaning towards Qnap.

1.) I am a photographer and have about 4tb of images I'd like to back up/rotate on an ongoing basis. These could be backup catalog files or low res image proxies that I can pull/send to clients. Also there will be photoshop work and occasional short video work to be done.
2.) I'm just beginning to study programming and would like to be able to have vm capabilities.
3.) One son - music and some videos on a central server would be useful for my family.
4.) Another son - 10-50gb files for 3D modeling projects for school. Storage and access only.
Beyond that, I'm open.

I was looking at one of the Qnap 3 drive series, primarily because I can almost afford it.
And with the pandemic, it might be awhile...

Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks again!

Steve
