Dear Robbie,
I've watched many of your videos and I really learned a lot about my NAS purchase decision.
However, I'm still doubting between DS224+ or TS262 (or TS462, which is only 30 euros more expensive here). I also watched your comparison video.
My wishes: NAS on local LAN, it should provide a smooth and fast experience particularly for viewing photos in large (1000+ photos) folders, and playing 4k videos.
I currently own a TS233 which has issues: very slow thumbnail generation, very slow photo/video viewing, and some software issues which seem to be solved with app updates now.
Now, should a big hardware upgrade (TS262 > TS233) solve these problems? Or would a software-'upgrade' help, to DS224+ with only slightly better hardware than TS233?
I noticed both Synology and QNAP mobile apps have very poor ratings, but both regularly updated, and your comparisons on mobile apps suggest both provide smooth experience.
Any advice would be highly appreciated!
