DS124

Irgendein altes Cheapo Büro PC für einen Zwanni holen Die Stromkosten können da die Falle sein: Synology DS124 saugt laut deren Datenblatt 3.44-10.69 Watt. Beim alten PC wirds gegen 50-90W gehen, das sind dann über 4 Jahre Betriebszeit unter Umständen auch mal 400-800 Euro Mehrkosten. Fürs ernsthaft

I have 4 Synology's (DS416, DS223, DS224+ and the DS124). The DS124 coupled with internal SSD storage is speedy/silent and capable for my use case. Power: It idles at 3.9w (SSD only) and can stream 4K video at 5w. Mine runs Plex (no transcoding). When on holiday. I can Tailscale to it and grab/view

Synology has milked their customers for 10+ years in 2013 i gave up on getting a Synology when i wanted a 4-6 bay NAS because it was a better option to simply build a Core i5 / 16GB PC with a NAS case - that "server" has now run for 12 years and has served me extremely well. Lately i purchased a DS1

Self host for yourself, and by that I mean in case of Minecraft servers, do let your friends play there. As soon as you begin thinking “I’ll move my entire extended family to this setup”, you’ve failed. First of all, your hobby will turn into a day job (and evenings, and nights, along with weekends

Hey, while you can learn things from a pre-built nas like this one or other brands, it's mostly installing apps with 1 button. Don't get me wrong, it's super convenient and these stuff are enough for an average user, but I find it limiting for more intermediate things and learning. I'd say it's a go

I know it will go against the accepted setup in this sub but for your usage I would go with a Synology DS124 single bay drive. You can currently order one from Walmart for $150 bucks according to their website so this would give you more leeway to spend on a bigger hard drive. They’ve got 20TB for $

It'll do the job if you make sure they're using a playback device that does local decoding. If the DS124 has to do any transcoding of any "modern" content (i.e. 1080p or greater) it's not going to always perform consistently. If you pair it with an Apple TV or an NVidia Shield and teach them how to

If it's only for Torrents, the Synology DiskStation DS124 for less than $140, if it's in a cool location it will be completely silent. power consumption is 3-10 watts, so in some examples it can pay for itself. takes a 3.5" drive, so you'll need the bracket to hold the ssd in place ($10).

This sounds like a really interesting option. I had discounted wifi completely because Synology does not support wifi dongles, but never considered a travel router to abstract the wifi from the DS124.

I get the appeal of the DS124 as it's as cheap. It's £100 compared to £320 for a DS224+ but there's a reason for that. Having a parity drive can literally be the difference between losing absolutely everything vs losing nothing aside from the cost of replacing a bad drive. They don't normally die st
