TS-464

Ok, this is my crack at answering your questions. I have a TS-464 and a TVS-h1688x and love them both for the different purposes I have them for. Keep in mind that these are my experiences, but I did run them through google gemini for formatting and grammar before posting them. Question: Can the 8GB

The TS-464 is doing-well, no reported issues. I have a TS-264, it's the fastest NAS I own. :)

I also own a TS-464. I love it! QTS sucked on it, now it runs Unraid. QuTS Hero is also available, which is cool. This CPU problem of your old NAS actually we can thank to Intel, it also affected Synology products...

Pulled this from a chat gpt response of what you said above... The simplest “best fit” build for your numbers 4 bay NAS + 4 x 10TB or 4 x 12TB drives in RAID5 (or Synology SHR). • 4 x 10TB in RAID5 gives about 27TB usable • 4 x 12TB in RAID5 gives about 33TB usable That lands right in your 20 to 24T

I just started on the TS-464. So I’m a newbie. But I don’t get your post. What’s making you want to start fresh? How many drives are in it now? Just one 20 tb drive? For me, I’m started with 2 , 8TB. I finished my Time Machine backup and backup essential docs and I’m just at a bit over 1 TB used. I

You mean a 'spanning JBOD', JBOD would be single disks. Also in QNAP land you cannot add disks to a JBOD, you have to kill it and redo the whole array. If you have a sjngle disk in a storage pool, you can add more single disks to the pool (complete data loss upon single disk failure of course) As a

Do not make the mistake to think RAID is a backup, it is NOT https://www.raidisnotabackup.com/ Ability to use the NAS with your TV depends on what capabilities the TV\smart box has you use. My vote would be for Plex, but for Plex you should use at minimum an intel Celeron NAS, with 4 bays that would

Before you are trying this confusing disk disk jockey stunt, why not just upgrade to QuTS 5.3 and use the HA feature ? https://www.qnap.com/en/how-to/tutorial/article/how-to-set-up-a-high-availability-cluster edit I guess 5.3 is not available for this NAS yet. https://www.qnap.com/en/download?model=

TS-464 sounds like it would fit. Use the 4 spinning disks (RAID5) for your camera and data storage and the two NVMe (RAID1) for your docker or VM needs. If you upgrade the RAM you could even run QuTS with ZFS on that NAS.

As someone who owns and runs both Synology and QNAP boxes, I say the only advantage that Synology has is in the slick user interface, whereas the QNAP desktop experience can feel slightly disjointed across its desktop UI and apps, leading to a some initial confusion to an unfamiliar user and can lea
