How would the Asustor AS6302T compare to the QNAP TS253Be?

How would the Asustor AS6302T compare to the QNAP TS253Be? The Asustor has the outputs that I want (HDMI 2.0 and S/PDIF), but I’m unsure about the rest of the hardware setup, including the CPU. In your opinion would the Asustor have the same speed and capacity as the QNAP? I may delay my decision […]

I would like to know if it is possible to have a single disk plus 2 disks in RAID 0 and the other 5 in a RAID 5 in the same 8 bay NAS (QNAP, Sysnology or Asustor). A multi-RAID option is available in Qnap, Synology and Asustor. The most configurable NAS will surely be […]

Asustor AS6404T vs Qnap TS-453Be or Synology DS918+

Upgrade from AS-304T (5 year to old 4 bay). My AS-304T has a 32bit kernel limit of 16 TB volumes. It’s running 4x4TB in Raid 5 so it’s about 11 TB. Swapping drives (to 8 or 10 TB) won’t make it, as with the 16 TB limit there is not that much to gain. There […]

Asustor AS4004t or Synology DS918+

I’ve looked into the DS218+ & DS718+. I’ve also looked at the Drobo, and briefly the WD. I’m now strongly thinking of the Asustor AS4004t. In your old vs new video with Eddie, you mentioned that your favorite brand might not be the top two. I’ve scoured most of you content on both channels, but […]
