Ethernet, network port on your computer to network port on the NAS.

@@QNAPUK I didn't even realize I needed a switch until after I started setting up, but I just hooked this QNAP up to the router and it appears to be working. I guess that's a future investment.

Quite often the most common problem is that you're using a HTTPS port that you set in WebDAV settings but only use HTTP in the URL, or vice versa. Are you 100% sure the link you are using to connect is correct with the activated port for WebDAV?

One of the biggest disadvantages of Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt is cable length, generally you will be limited to be sitting within 2-3 metres of the NAS for this. This Sonnettech device really takes away that limitation without sacrificing performance.

Hit the 3 lines at the top left of your NAS UI, it will bring out a menu with all the apps, including the App Center. Drag it to the desktop to the right and place it where you want. It will still be in the main menu as well as now having a shortcut on the desktop.

Yes, install our HybridDesk Station (HDStation), this is what will control what is on the HDMI output. You can install video players there. You will also need to make sure that your PCIe GPU is set to the mode of "QTS Mode" in the settings for it.

Here are all the notes regarding our NAS Migration: Please note: The destination NAS should contain enough drive bays to accommodate the hard drives from the source NAS. It is recommended that the source NAS and destination NAS are both using the most-recent version of operating system. Check the drive bay sizes of both the source NAS and destination NAS and ensure that your hard drives are compatible with the destination NAS. Check drives compatibility list. You must disable SSD caching on the source NAS before migrating to the destination NAS. If the source NAS has connected JBOD/expansion units, you should check that the destination NAS is compatible with these units before migrating. After system migration, the following may occur: Storage settings (including Qtier and SSD caching) may be changed. Network and virtual switch settings (including Port Trunking, Virtual Switch, Thunderbolt, and USB QuickAccess) may be changed. If the destination NAS has less RAM than the source NAS, some features and applications may not be supported (including Virtualization Station, Qsirch, and Snapshots). If you're migrating to a target NAS that is incomparable in its functions to the source NAS, restrictions apply and the migration may not work. These restrictions are, including but not limited to, as follows: Hard disk drives configured as a storage pool on the source NAS can not be migrated to a target NAS that does not support storage pools. QNAP recommends checking the transferability status of your licenses on QNAP License Manager before data migration. Not all licenses are transferable. QNAP recommends deactivating transferable licenses on the source NAS before data migration. Non-transferable licenses can not work on destination NAS after data migration. Due to incompatibilities in file system, system migration between QTS and QuTS hero operating system is not supported. If you still have legacy volumes in QTS 4.3.4 or later, we recommend that you backup all data on the legacy volumes, create one or more new volumes, and then restore the data to the new volumes. This will enable you to fully utilize all features of Storage and Snapshots. A legacy volume is a volume created before QTS 4.0. Existing volumes become legacy volumes after upgrading QTS from an early version to version 4.0 or later. Legacy volumes can still be used for data storage, but their behavior and status will not be consistent with other volume types.They also cannot benefit from the latest QTS features such as snapshots.

The most important thing with QuTS hero is to make sure you have at least 2 x SSD's to be used as a system volume, ideally in RAID1. This system volume can be used for apps as well as the OS. You can then use the HDD's for your data, also additional SSD's can be installed as well for things like an SSD cache if you need it.

TBS-h574TX is a much smaller unit, SSD only, great if you need to take it to shooting locations or anywhere else as it's so small. The TVS-h874T is a much larger unit, can take a mix of SSD's and HDD's, much better to be installed at a fixed location like your studio. Both are aimed toward content creators looking to do things like video editing with multiple editors.

TVS-h474 supports a maximum of 64GB in the form of 2 x 32GB modules.

Netback PC Agent is about getting data from the client computer into the NAS. If you need something to get data from the NAS into an off-site location like a Cloud Server then I would probably recommend using our HBS3 (Hybrid Backup Sync) application to do that. It does support full backups/syncs as well as incremental.

HDD's do have a limitation... the best SATA EXOS X24 speeds on their data sheet is 285MB/s under ideal conditions/data. Multiplying 285 by the 8 drive bays will only give a little over 2,000MB/s... with real world random data and a redundant RAID setup, probably half that. So SSD's would be needed to achieve anything faster.

You would have to create a Virtual Switch in our Network and Virtual Switch application, there is a wizard for doing a Bridged network, you would want to combine both 10GbE on the QNAP NAS into this.

Yes, the 24TB Exos X24 (ST24000NM002H) has now been added to our compatibility list for the TVS-h874T so you would be able to install 8 in there. Space available will be confirmed by the NAS, but after doing the decimal (advertised size) to binary (actual usable by NAS) conversion, you would have around 150-152TB available in RAID5. For context, the 22TB drive would give around 138-140TB usable in a RAID5. 24TB (decimal) = 21.82TB (binary) 22TB (decimal) = 20TB (binary)

Plex can automate that with it's optimised versions function, it will watch a folder and then offline transcode it to whatever you need.

@@QNAPUK Can the Cayin MediaSign Player serve a similar purpose?

Yes, you would configure that in Multimedia Console under the Transcoding->Settings area. When a folder is set as a background transcoding folder, all files in the folder will be transcoded automatically. When a new file is added to the folder, it will be scanned and added as a background transcoding task. You can select the scanning schedule and output format for transcoded files. CAYIN does the work, Multimedia Console does the monitoring of what will be transcoded.

@@QNAPUK awesome, thanks.

Originally we launched TS-464-4G, this had 1 x 4GB module and 2 x RAM slots internally, the maximum RAM on this unit is 16GB. Later we transitioned to TS-464-8G, offering double the RAM. Depending on time of manufacture the TS-464-8G may have onboard RAM, it may have 2 x RAM slots with 1 x 8GB module, but we are quoting that it is officially non-upgradable. If you happen to get one with 2 x RAM slots it is up to the you if you want to try to upgrade it, but it will not officially be supported by our Helpdesk and they may ask that it be reinstated to the original 8GB whilst we are troubleshooting any issues you may tell us about.

@@QNAPUK While I completely understand the potential, reset the unit back to 8GB because thats what QNAP supports - WHY is that the threshold when per Intel the N5105 supports 2 channels, 1 dimm per channel at up to 16GB for a system max of 32GB? I have been running 32GB in my TS-464 8G unit for over a year now, and it has been flawless.

It is up to you if you want to do that... mainly on the 8GB included unit we do not want to say you can upgrade the RAM as it would upset someone if they bought it and it was a version with embedded RAM with no slots to upgrade. If you are lucky to get RAM slots and willing to take the risk... it is up to you if you upgrade beyond what we advise, but you may be asked to revert back to the original 8GB by our Helpdesk if you need their assistance.

Most Mac's with the Apple Silicon are USB4 already so will be able to use them.

@@QNAPUK Great!

What do you need pricing for?

1. Not necessarily in an order, agree that the h1688X is more powerful than the h886 though. In this case the left to right order would be correct. 2. Yes, so far I understand the compatibility as either USB4 or Thunderbolt3 and Thunderbolt4. Things could change in the next few months leading up to release though.

Yes, just make sure to add the "source" into whatever Media Server software you are using where the path of that source is the USB drive.

I believe the indicator light on the front panel is only for the built-in ports, the PCIe NIC's will usually have their own lights on the card itself.

It is a really good NAS with a nice spec.

Sorry. I have forgot to create index.html file in the root Now the main root web page opens after typing the IP in port 80 / 8081 now my issue is after creating virtual web sites and pointing the directory as demonstrated in video, i am getting a lander page of Godaddy after entering the web address created in virtual server

Hello i have same problem it saeys you dont have permision to access forbiden what should i do?

And how to create html file cuz i cant

The NAS is constantly monitoring disk health and you can run extra manual scans if you wish from the Storage/Snapshots application by going to Disk Health on each drive.

If you have a 10GbE switch then you can plug your computer and NAS into that instead and use 10GbE speeds between anything connected with 10GbE, direct is a great option if you do not have a 10GbE switch but have both 10GbE in the NAS and your computer.

You can use the Power Schedule options to turn the NAS off at times it is not in use, it would certainly save power. You can set a specific schedule for the NAS to turn back on or just push the power button on the NAS and it will wake up when you need it.

We reserve just under 25GB of the capacity for the System Pool... the rest of the space can be used for any other storage purpose you need... you can create a share and tell the NAS to put it on the SSD Pool if you need data in 1 area to be faster than other data. Apps can also be installed to it so they work faster, by default they will use the System Pool, some apps can be installed elsewhere though. You cannot use the spare capacity on the SSD's for a cache though, as the drives are in use the cache will not see them as available.

@@QNAPUK many thanks

Dynamic DNS, you can use the one within MyQNAPCloud or you can choose a 3rd party option if you wish.

If an app was started when the NAS was shut down, it will automatically start again the next time it boots up. You can start/stop apps in the App Center. But you will not have to manually start it each time, if you never stop the app, it will always be running each time the NAS boots up.
