DS923+

Wenn du nur im Haus etwas freigeben willst und auf Redundanz und Fehleranfälligkeit pfeifst (ich denke, dein Rechner hat auch kein RAID zum Booten?) dann ist das komplett ausreichend und stromsparend. Wenn ich dann Daten freigeben will, einfach so oder via VPN, dann macht die das mit Usermanagement

If you want to go for a NAS and run Docker/VMs go for Ugreen, much better hardware and you can always customise and install an OS of your choice. Synology used to be good but not anymore also the hardware on the 423 is very old compared to the new Ugreen stuff. Disclaimer: I’m still running a Synolo

If your only concern is Immich then no, I wouldn't buy new hardware (unless you need more HDD bays). However, if you anticipate running much beyond Immich, then yes I would definitely look at a decommissioned server to use as your NAS. That's what I did after outgrowing my Synology DS923+. You're li

I have it as you say I have a DS923+ that had my docker containers such as plex and others, but since it doesn’t even have iGPU I built a home server with an i5-12400 which can transcode AV1 and more like a beast. I rsync all of plex-media-server data to the docker folder I created on this new pc an

A NAS definitely can run backend services and databases in containers - the issue is how efficiently it does so. A weak CPU (try to get x86, not ARM) and HDD storage instead of SSD will likely cause slow performance and frustration. especially in terms of databases. But, honestly, i’d suggest diggin

Hardware: The DS925+ is a "downgrade" to the DS923+. No option for 10GbE anymore. The DS4800 plus/pro has 1x10GbE. While Synology now allows 3rd party HDDs in their x25+ series, I think 3rd party NVMEs are still restricted (cache or pool?), but I could be wrong about this. Ugreens hardware offering
