QuTS Hero for TS-464

#1
Hi
Thank you for the very informative videos!

Could you please advise whether it makes sense to switch to QuTS Hero in my case? I have a TS-464 with 8GB of RAM, which I can upgrade to 16GB if needed. However, as I understand, ZFS is quite resource-intensive, and I'm not sure if even 16GB would be sufficient, especially considering the CPU's modest performance.

I only purchased this NAS yesterday, so I don't have much experience with it or ZFS. My primary use cases include:

Storing files that won't be accessed frequently
Media streaming
Cloud storage for up to two users

Do you think the hardware will be sufficient for these tasks, especially with encryption (full disk encryption), ZFS, and streaming in mind? I’d like to take advantage of ZFS features such as deduplication, integrity checking, and archiving, but I definitely wouldn’t want my NAS to struggle with its primary tasks because of these features.

Thank you in advance for your advice!

Best regards,
Pas
