Hi All,
Great Vids on YT guys & always watch them! ?
Couldn't seem to find much on the forum so here goes....
Migrated from from a TP-431P which has worked well for years but when the local dealer listed the new LS-462 for less than half price it was too good to be true but was so ... boom!!
We have migrated our HD's between them & have B/U, zeroed vol. & restored our data so able to use snapshots etc.
At the same time we upgraded the RAM from 2GB to 16GB! ?
Now we are considering adding NVMe cache and/or Qtier & a 5/10 Gbe PCIe NIC?
Questions are:-
1. What size Cache is appropriate for our NAS size & usage?
2. Should we use Qtier & again if so what size?
3. Can/should we mix both the above? Is there additional benefit instead of having one or the other?
4. What NIC would be suitable? A 5 or 10 Gbe? Both can can be used in our new DMS-106XT 2.5Gbe/10Gbe switch!
Look forward to any & all ideas, suggestions & solutions to optimize our shiny new NAS! ?
Cheers,
Tas
