Thank you for reading this – may you have an advice on where I should look next. Would like QNAP or Synology solution that – 10G built in or possible (PCIe lot) – BOTH 10G eventually possible (I have SFP+ switch now and would go into Cat6 rj45 later) – multiple bays – M2 cashing […]
I am a freelance videographer/editor and so far, I have used my iMac’s internal hard drive and/or external hard drives for both storing files and backing up files from multiple computers/hard drives. Recently, almost all of my available space across these platforms become full, and I didn’t want to go through the same process of […]
I’ve been waiting for years to purchase a NAS so that I could ensure that all of my personal files are stored in a safe place and not on my 2 desktop HDDs. Now I am ready to purchase and need some feedback on what my best option(s) would be. Use is for small business/home […]
I have been reading and reading, but am still unable to choose a NAS for my use. I am doing photography and some limited video editing (HD and 4K) and have quite a big library of files. Mostly RAW files and Video recordings that take up space. I see that I should get a NAS […]
I’m moving from a Syn 1815+ to a RS3618xs and upgrading network to 10GBe as well. Our workstations are USB-C, so I went with Sonnet SOLO adapters, but the nic for the Syn is SFP+. If you had to buy a switch with both RJ45 and SFP+, what is your first choice? I’ve been looking […]
Lowest Priced 10Gbe we have seen, but does the Buffalo TeraStation 5810DN NAS do the job? With file sizes growing constantly, the need for a faster network connection in your home or office has never seemed more important. We at NASCompares have spent a lot of 2018 telling you about the versatility of 10Gbe, the ease […]
I’m looking to add a NAS device with dual 10GBE ports to my work network to host GIS data (some being large datasets) and would like some advice. I’ll be getting two new PCs and an 8-port 10GBE switch (depending on which option below) when I get the NAS. We currently have a Windows 2012 […]
We are a small 3d studio consisting of 3-4 people working in an office with several computers/workstations and a single NAS we bought 2 years ago the QNAP TS-453a. We were actually so clueless that we bought a NAS at the time that had a lot of the features we never used or needed like […]
I’m searching for a NAS where I can store my 4k video files and also edit from. I already looked into the QNAP TVS-871 and the Lumaforge Jellyfish mobile, but I have no experience or knowledge in this field. So maybe you could help me a little bit. The best would be a 20-30TB storage […]

I’m planning to use it as a central data repository for domestic and SOHO business purposes, plus as a media store and potentially streaming device. I’ve installed Roon on it and it seems to be performing very well, despite having just 4GB RAM. I am wondering about a couple of things, however. Firstly, I’m thinking […]
I’m searching for a NAS with focus on file-usage-speed: – 10GbE connection, if possible with link aggregation – can run Plex and maybe a couple of other applications – can use SSDs – is quiet 10+ TB There aren’t many 10GbE options available especially if you prefer traditional RJ45 connection. But there are quite a few single and […]
