    Thank you for the thorough review. I'm thinking of buying a new NAS and am torn between waiting to see Synology's 2024 offerings and getting a QNAP. I currently have two older Synology NASes (1512+,1813+) that have served me well, but I would like something capable of being a self-sustained Plex server with good transcoding capability. QTS gets a bad rap in many reviews and on some forums, so it was good for me to see the newest version in action. QNAP's security history still remains a concern, but it looks like they're headed in the right direction. Thanks again.

      I'm in the same boat, trying to figure out a new NAS primarily as a Jellyfin media server, but doing other things like dealing with family photos, virtualization home lab, etc.
      Looking at TerraMaster, Asustor and Qnap, but quite undecided. Asustor wins on hardware, TerraMaster wins on price, but software is the big unknown. Interested to hear what you end up with!

      LOL....3 months later and I'm here for exactly the same thing. Plex transcoding and family photos use all I'm really after so looking on the second hand market here in the UK.... Did you l either of you ever plumb for one model over another?
      Thanks

    Please can you do a video on setting up of DLNA server on latest QNAP software. Bought a few weeks ago a QNAP SILENTNAS HS-264 to backup my music ripped on my Naim HDX Music server (2000 CDs). But there is no DLNA server on the QNAP software. The multimedia console app does not work. It cannot see any of my music DLNA devices on my network, except for my bluray player. Why is there no DLNA server on SILENTNAS HS-264?

    MARS also doesn't seem to work at all - when trying to connect to Google Photos, I just get 'sorry, something went wrong, try again later' - not very helpful message... Some of the apps available in this ecosystem appear not worth bothering with. The basics are rather decent, I have had no major problems.

    For the container station part, it looks like it will be simple, but in fact you have to read all FAQ/docs, forums, discords (where no one answer) to hope to do something that might work. And it's not that I don't want to use their version of an app, but they're outdated, plex for example has a version that's 7 months old!

    I used your video on Virtualization Station (VS) from April 2020 to create a VM from my Windows 11. It was just enough hand holding to get it done. But now that VS 4.0 Beta is on my QNAP, it's different enough that your old video has lost a lot of its usefulness. So, I look forward to your new VS video. When you do that video, I would really appreciate it if you would compare the various methods of deploying a VM such as Create, Import, Convert and when each would be used. I find that part or the process somewhat confusing. Also, some tools create VHD files whereas Virtualization Station requires VMD or ISO files. Maybe touch on how to create or convert those files. (I used VMware Ver 6.3 to create my Windows 11 VM but for some reason Ver 6.4 wants to create the incompatible VHD files.)
    I would add that SpaceRex did a video in May 2020 about connecting to your VM using the Windows Remote Desktop Connector which really speeds things up. Also Scotti-Byte did a video in August 2022 on speeding up VM's by properly installing the VirtIO drivers. That made a huge difference as that affects screen resolution, network adapter, and HDD.

    Hi,
    Just wanted to let you know that qnap are shipping TS 264 with upgradable sodim ram slots, so 16gb is the maximum for this little beast.
    Would you please look it up or try to get your hands on one to do some comparisons with your current 8gb soldered unit?

    • @CalBru
      @CalBru 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Might be 32 Gb actually, in spite of Intel specs. Terramaster says it is, and saw another user commenting that they had upgraded to 32 Gb

  • @marcopaolini3478

    Awesome review! Lots of info to process when you are talking from a really technical knowledge base 😃
    After running 5 years with two TS-253Be NASses, I decided to change drives to SSD's.
    Updated the QTS and started from bottom up as a new system, having all my files rsynced to the second NAS.
    During install, I had to check the box - paragraph 6 of the Qnap TOS - that Qnap is allowed to audit my NAS if I am behaving well ANY TIME...
    This concerns me a lot because I don't want NOBODY to snoop in my private files.
    Can you tell me, if I only use the Qnaps as file storage and rsync backup, how I can be shure that Qnap can't access my files??
    If not, I'll move over to OpenMediaVault being quit nice but needing a steep learning curve when talking about correct implementation of encrypted filesystem and backing up the boot drive which can't be in raid on this NAS.

  • @CalBru
    @CalBru 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Interesting. Had Qnap 20 years ago, and at the time, it seemed a bit of a hot mess of inconsistency with processor slowing to a stall if you did too much. That clearly hasn't changed.
    Pity, as some of their software shown looks very good, and almost had me in "buy" mode - and may yet. Waiting to see similar on ADM and TOS (Synology is unfortunately dead to me, without a gpu).
    THANK YOU FOR THIS - Best review you've done!!

    I am new to the NAS DAS scene. I am a home user with a 4 drive win 7 PC and just want to store and synch my drives in DAS mode not NAS mode. I boutght a QNAP TS-004 (4 bay) and 4 10tb hard drives and ended up copying files to the QNAP with it in individual mode because I could not find any videos on a more efficient way of doing this. It leaves me wondering why I didn't just buy a few drives like external Seagate or WD portable back up drives and save a whole lot of $$. You know your stuff as you make a lot of videos, Why not do a video for the many people in my situation as I am sure we are many.

    My first NAS was a qnap and it randomly decided to drop one of my drives, then decided to totally reset itself without any of my input. Replaced it with Synology and it's been so much more stable. Qnap OS (QTS) is utter crap.
