Setting up a NAS - Who to Hire?

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

NAS setup for small team, hybrid workflow

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,

Question

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.

NAS-Empfehlungen und Frage

zu kaufen und gleich OEM Festplatten, RAM und M2 mitzukaufen Was ich für private Zwecke NICHT empfehlen würde, ist Synologyhardware zum NAS zu kaufen. Für Businesszwecke wegen des Supports und RMA-Prozessen vielleicht ja, aber für private Zwecke zahlt man doch erheblich mehr "für nichts". Festplatte

NAS for Small Editing Team with a quirk?

I wasn't sure if this was a QNAP forum, or the editors forum, when I got this notification. No matter what I say - I wind up insulting someone - perhaps I will wind up insulting you. This is the editors forum. It is for professional editors. Professional editors are not using iPhones and GoPro camer

How do ya'll manage redundancy and backups

As much as I love Synology DSM as an operating system, while also really appreciating the modern hardware and nice build of the Ugreen models, I could never switch until Ugreen comes out with the ability to expand storage with their own line of expansion units and new NAS models, like Synology has h
