Can your problems be first world problems if you don't live in the first world itself?
I use torrent sites, and where I live it is very easy to do because the ISPs don't seem to give a shit, you don't even need a VPN as long as you download from sites with good reputation. I've been running a seedbox/NAS for about four years now and it only stops seeding if I lose power or my internet

Looking to upgrade from Synology DS223j
fwiw, i also have a DS223j from a couple of years back but i recently bought a 4-bay terramaster f4-423 for around the same price and it's been pretty solid, no complaints at all. i stuck a spare 8gb of ram in it and it seems to run really fast. I actually prefer the OS to synology tbh

NAS tárhely tapasztalatok és segítség?
Nekem van egy pár Synology NAS-om. Belépő szintűek, J osztályúak. Van 10 évesél is régebbi és szépen megy. Otthonra ajánlhatom a DS223j típust. Ebbe tehetsz egy vagy két lemezt, ezek lehetnek RAIDben vagy szólóban is. NASba SSD-t nem célszerű használni, kivéve ha kifejezetten erre tervezett a NAS. E

[Q] Any chance of continuing to use macOS w/ a Time Capsule
Nope, and you don't want to. Buy a simple two-disk NAS like a Synology DS223j with NAS grade drives, set it up as a RAID1 mirror and move on. If you're using an original Time Capsule, that drive must be 10+ years old at this point (assuming it's original) and if it's an older Time Capsule could be a

Why did you choose ASUSTOR over Synology? Looking for real-world opinions before I buy.
Roughly a year ago I had a then 9 year old drobo 5N that I knew I needed to replace asap instead of sitting on my arse. My dad had a synology disk station (ds223j I think) and a netgear ready nas (rip netgear) and they've always worked no problem. I was looking at synology and the prices were high,

Storage Solutions for m4 Mac Mini
Going through these one at a time. HDDs are absolutely fine here. 4K Blu-ray REMUX caps out around 120-140 Mbps, which is roughly 15-18 MB/s. Any 3.5" external sustains 150-200 MB/s, so the disk isn't where you'd ever feel a hitch. Anyone telling you to buy SSDs for movie storage is selling you some

Anyone have a Pi NAS fail?
i ran a pi nas for about a year with just photos and docs. honestly the reliability worries are a bit overblown for light use like yours. what finally made me switch was the convenience of a dedicated nas - something like a Synology DS223j just works without tinkering. pulled my drives over and have
