you are not doing anything with a 4 drive NAS. the suggestion below of the 1821+ is a good suggestion if the DS1821+ was still being made, but today it's the DS1825+ or DS1823xs+. And for these models, you have to use Synology branded drives, which are double the price of a Seagate EXOS or Western D

well - Synology has removed the DS1821+ from their website, so I cannot tell you what is the largest supported drive. On the current models - DS1823xs+ and DS1825+, they are only officially supporting Synology drives, not Seagate or Western Digital or Toshiba. There were some drives that were suppor

nothing wrong with AVID Nexis. Nothing wrong with EditShare. Nothing wrong with Facilis Hub. Nothing wrong with OWC Jellyfish, nothing wrong with Studio Network Solutions EVO. You want a QNAP or a Synology for 3 editors with Adobe Premiere or AVID Media Computer - you get an EIGHT DRIVE NAS. I don't

Good morning. Your "Synology rep" - really ? using an iSCSI LUN has nothing to do with remote editing. For your simple application - all you need to do is connect via the built in SMB network protocol, which is both on your Mac (and any office PC) and the Synology. To do professional video editing,

so many people are SO out of touch with what is happening with technology today. This is not a "money grab" - the price of all electronic components has gone thru the roof. And the least of your worries is paying another $1800 for a TVS-h1688X. Have you seen the insane prices for SATA disk drives, S

If you happen to have gig fiber access, and none of your friends and family are using crappy client devices, and lastly, your media is all 1080p with a bitrate that doesn't exceed 10 to 15Mbps, you can easily direct stream to 25 or more remote users without your hardware having a single issue.

https://www.synology.com/en-us/products/DS1825+and add one or two expansions:https://www.synology.com/en-us/products/DX525 Decent processor allows you to throw all your *Arr containers on the NAS and use the HTPC just for transcoding.

Ich hab hier ein Synology DS1817+ und ein DS1821+, also eines aus dem Jahre 2017, das andere von 21. Beide erledigen als Datengrab und zum Streamen Ihren Zweck. Nur mal so zum Einschätzen, synology hat den Nachfolger des DS1821+ nahezu unverändert gelassen, der einzige Unterschied sind die Netzwerkp

I think one of the main differences between somebody looking at a Unifi NAS and somebody looking at a QNAP or Synology NAS is in what they want out of their NAS. Are they looking for storage, or are the looking for a home server? The QNAP, Synology, UGREEN, etc, cater to those that want one box on t
