To which NAS to upgrade ?

#1
Hello,
I'm new in the forum watched your great videos and would like to hear your advice.

Currently, I have a TS-453Be NAS (use 2 bays only), which is starting to experience some performance bottlenecks. The CPU utilization reaches around 70-90% during the following tasks:
  • Backups with Acronis - Acronis is installed on a PC client that backs up data to and from the NAS
  • NAS backup to the cloud with HBS 3.
  • Torrent downloads with Rtorrent—this is the most demanding task.

When Rtorrent downloads something (runs at 65MB/s), Qsirch is automatically triggered and start indexing the new files which add ~30% to CPU util and results in 70-90% CPU util total with the Rtorrent proccess.
So if I try to do anything else in parallel with an ongoing Rtorrent download session, even simple SMB share browsing becomes slow.

Now, here’s my question: I’m thinking of upgrading to either the TS-262 or the TS-264. Which one would be more suitable for the needs mentioned above?
Additionally, would it be beneficial to go with the TS-264 due to its 4-core CPU, which might serve me well over a longer period?

Looking forward to your insights!

Thank you
