But plex doesn't work with hdmi, right? It needs server and client and rj cable or wifi
Yes, but many other cases where HDMI is handy.
@UltimateAI: True.. i like qnap that we can connect monitor and make become mini desktop.
Not with synology
@FoxJump: always envy looking at qnap design they are better than syno, even the old ones qnap has usb port in the front.
too bad already stuck with syno, no $ to buy and no time to migrate
@CyberMurning: Qnap is a bit buggy :(
today the external harddrive support kinda went haywire.
also network transfer was much slower than usual.
also postponing thumbnail generation kept ignoring the postponing
and ive been waiting 15mins for a bloody reboot
not to mention its onedrive sync sucks if youre doing the first initial sync.
and my usb3 stick drive was recognised as usb2 the first time and usb3 later times.
and how setting up the virtual switch buggers up the firewall rather than making it all nice and seamless.
I'm getting frustrated at this crap.
wife's already pissed off at me for spending so much time on this
:(
@FoxJump: Agree the point of buying expensive nas is not spending much time hehe
Jump to syno then. Mine been running okay for 10 years. Yes 10!
@CyberMurning: I just bought this goddamn lemon.
It struggled terribly to connect to my external disk. cant even do a bloody format !
GRRRRR. GRR WD.
it was fine with an old 2TB Red as an external backup disk, but with the shucked 10TB wd it just fails terribly.
@FoxJump: Maybe 10tb is not compatible yet?

@CyberMurning: ffs
i'm using it as an external usb disk.
how can they stuff support for a regular mass storage device ?!
the reboot i did … ended up causing it to hard-reboot somehow and now i have to resync the raid again :/
for the curious you can use the extension card to have a total of 4 nvme and 4 hdd at the same time!
Shipping looks to be free
That's not how port trunking works.
Think you are being too picking…
Trunking combined with link aggregation increases the overall bandwidth to 5gps on the condition multiple clients are used. ie: a single client can't consume more bandwidth than an individual interface.
See this is the answer that should be there.
Nice description.
That's the elephant in the room.
Shipping is free, there is a 1% surcharge fee, however it is still cheaper than QNAP online store at $699 + $15 shipping or $699 delivered if you bypass QNAP online store and purchase from same distributor online directly (https://www.devicedeal.com.au).
Purchased one (limit) for a total of $665.59, thanks OP.
No surcharge if you make a direct deposit.
Been researching NAS for a few days now, and too many models.
Can someone recommend me a model:
Budget under 1k
Regarding replace iCloud backup you will still want a backup of the data that you can't afford to lose. You can RAID whatever way you like but if your NAS (well, the disk's) are a total loss then you are knackered.
Note that plastic NAS's can get a bit noisy so don't put it anywhere you want total silence. Unless you're using SSD's!
Whatever you buy, don't forget to buy an additional giant USB drive(s) to occasionally backup the NAS itself. And then keep them disconnected when you aren't actively doing a backup.
use an external disk and use autobackup (so it backs up when mounted and dismounting when done)
plug the power adaptor to wifi smartswitch
and boom offline automatic remote backup
dunno how you cull but with small jpeg quick view on canon digital picture pro over wifi its ok. but with raws its really slow over wifi.
im using a glinet ar750 for wifi for the nas so its not quick.
when copying big files via wifi (client and nas on wifi) i get about 120megabits/s
when client on wifi and nas on gigabit eth, then i get upto 600megabits/s
but i have a python script to separate raw and jpeg, so i can cull based on jpeg and later another to delete Raws with no corresponding jpeg.
you can also get an ssd raid to be the Landing location for culling and later on spinny disk
also, you can configure from usb port with a card reader. so you put card in, press copy button (you have to configure it) and boom stuff is copied to nas
well basically the flowchart is like this:
built yourself —> sorry i have no idea, cant help
ready to use NAS —> syno or qnap
once you decide then: how many bays?
thats it. there isnt too many models once you decide the brand and bays. just pick the most powerful if there is a choice at at stage since i see you are using it work semi work.
