Slow qnap Nas ts-251? - Enquiries - 02-28-2020
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

you may want to check those drives for bad sectors. If drives seem fine then probably new QTS updates are bigger and require more hardware performance to run. In that case, you should look at one of the new models Qnap have released.I hope this helps.
