Need NAS - Enquiries - 04-07-2023
Hi there I just watched your video on video editing on a NAS. I own a small production company and want to offer editors all over the world the ability to download content from my NAS or edit on it.
I would love talking to you about my options. I felt like your video was great but I didn’t really know what to get at the end of it.
Do you have a list of things I could buy and set up? Thanks!!!
Devin

Based on your needs, the QNAP TVS-h874 could be a good option for your production company. This is a high-end NAS with a powerful Intel Core i7 processor and 32GB of RAM, which should provide sufficient performance for video editing and sharing.
In addition to the NAS, you'll also need to consider storage capacity and networking. For storage, you can add hard drives or SSDs to the NAS to create a storage pool. You can also configure RAID for data protection and redundancy.
For networking, you'll want to ensure that you have a fast and reliable internet connection so that editors can access the files on the NAS from anywhere in the world. You may also want to consider setting up a VPN to ensure secure remote access to the NAS.
In terms of software, you can use a variety of video editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro X. These applications can be installed directly on the NAS or accessed remotely via a virtual desktop.
Overall, setting up a NAS for remote video editing can be complex and requires careful planning. It's important to consider your specific needs and requirements before making a purchase. If you'd like more guidance, I'd recommend consulting with a professional or reaching out to QNAP's support team for assistance.
