TVS-h674-i3-16G

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

building a QNAP requires some knowledge. You are not plugging in a thunderbolt device like on a Mac, and it just mounts on your desktop (Which is what most photographers want with their MacBook Pro's). There is no mini SAS connection in any of the professional QNAP systems - it's all done over a net

you don't edit h.264 - you transcode this to a normal editing codec using things like Adobe Media Encoder, EditReady, etc. Resolve will also let you transcode h.264 - or you get stuttering playback. If you are never going to have 2 or more users, you can get away with a 6 drive NAS, but if you are g

for professional video editing, the QNAP is NOT going to do transcoding for you to other codecs. For example, if you want to cross convert from Apple ProRes to h.264 or convert from DNxHD to ProRes, or XAVC to ProRes - the QNAP is NOT going to do this for you. This is done with a program like Adobe

ZFS is amazing - and you know what is amazing about ZFS with QNAP ? You don't have to know anything about ZFS. IT's all web GUI - QNAP calls this QuTS. And yes - QNAP runs dockers - no issue. You install QNAP container station in the QNAP App Store (free) and now you can load in your dockers. Modern

I wouldn't recommend Synology due to their weak hardware (some models with obsolete CPUs), dropping of transcoding support and past anti-consumer behavior. QNAP and UGreen both have better hardware. Ugreen software isn't as mature at Synology's or QNAP's and there have been quite a few complaints ab

The Synology DS1525+ (V1500B quad-core, 8GB, 5x3.5" plus 2x M.2) with the H10 Mini 10GbE adapter is US$910 The TS-h666TX has one less bay but has dual 10GbE, TB4, PCIe slot, and the convenience of the front-mounted M.2/E1.S carriers. It slots under the TVS-h674-i3 (i3-12100 4C/8T) which is $1799. Th

A lot will depend on which QNAP model you have. My first QNAP was a TS-451+, it did ok with transcoding video, but once my library grew from a few dozen movies to several hundred the Plex interface was annoyingly slow to load. I’ve since upgraded to a much more capable tvs-h1288x model with the plex

True and depends on the QNAP model. I had issues with my older QNAP and now with my newer TVS-H674, I have zero issues streaming.
