Kaufberatung: Fotosicherung & KI-Gesichtserkennung – NAS oder Software-Lösung am PC?
Ich hab ein NAS von Synology (DS218+). Die integrierte Foto App macht genau das, was du beschreibst. Gesichts- und Objekterkennung, lokal. Und wenn die Foto App auf dem Handy installiert ist, werden geschossene Bilder automatisch hochgeladen. Eigentlich genau das, was du willst. Wählst du auch eine

State of UGreen vs Synology
I moved over to a DXP4800 Plus from a DS218+ about a month ago. I am using the NAS just as a storage device, so for me there is little difference. My backups to my USB drive work as intended. My offsite backup to One Drive works via cloud sync. My only complaint is their sync app is very lacking com

Hello fellow mkv enthusiasts and data Horders
Also definitely factor in the storage and keep in mind that you'll very likely need more than you think you will down the line. I started off with a 2-bay Synology DS218+ and two WD red 4TB drives, thought I'll never fill up those. But keep in mind, if you want redundancy (failover tolerance) one of

Synology to QNAP
I went from a DS218+ to a TS-664 (was waiting on the 923+ from Synology and that crapped out). I've been pretty happy with it and the 664 was better hardware specs and more storage space for less money. I left existing data on my 218+ and built 664 from new drives and just transferred data over via

DicoverLastFM - Automatic music discovery for Plex using Last.fm data
Hey, glad you like it! Yeah exactly, you'll need Headphones first. It's the missing piece that actually downloads the music. Your Synology + Plex setup is perfect, and the DS220j should handle it fine. I'm running everything on a DS218+ so you've got plenty of resources. The flow is: DiscoveryLastFM

Synology isn't the best NAS anymore
Synology never had competitive hardware. What makes them good is their software. I have a Uggreen NAS and frankly I regret buying it. The software is severely undercooked, especially when I bought it. It’s missing so many things you get with Synology’s DSM. I still have my old DS218+ running as a ba

DS920+ upgrade to i3-n305 on Xpeonology
I run Xpenology for almost a year now. The most important thing to remember is the update process (incremental updates are fine, 7.3 to 7.4 for example are not). It's important to know if a new update will work with Xpenology first. That said, I kept it simple; my Xpenology VM runs within Truenas (I

After 15 years with Synology, the last 3 months in unraid been life changing
Well said. You can't compare those solutions. Why does someone drive a truck, others prefer small hatchbacks? And don't even mention car brands. I've made the switch from Synology->unRaid->Truenas I have my reasons for preferring Truenas, but what I miss most from Synology is the set and forget ment

Solution pour Cloud maison/NAS + Media center ?
J'ai un petit Synology ds218+ (2 baies) j'ai installé jellyfin en server et l'application sur la Smart tv, ça fonctionne impec pour peu que tu ne remplisse pas à rabord les disques de film (sinon une Petite extension de ram et rouler Jeunesse). Pour la musique, il y a l'appli de Synology et celle de
