True that, but some folks like the ease-of-use and form factor.

I know the function but it doesn't take much processor power to run a server. Need a non-DIY version of something like this: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-build-raspberry-pi-powered-nas ...

I'm looking for a good NAS drive to use with this. Want 4 TB minimum but believe 6 TB is better for future-proofing.
Let us know if you find any good deals!

I thought you could easily tell since you have it in hand. Otherwise I will wait for when mine arrives.

No idea. Google it and let us know. For what I do, it feels 10x faster than the ds211j and about 100x less frustrating to work with. Remember how slim the OS is. I'd doubt there's much of a...

Really cool. Can you upgrade the RAM on this? Does it have 2 slots or 1? I'd like 1GB to ensure it can stream 4k.

The update from my 211j (still going strong 24/7 since 2010) was an amazing difference. It's meaningfully faster in every way. The "migration" was as easy as just moving the drives over physically,...

This one says "24 TB (12 TB drive x 2) (Capacity may vary by RAID types)". I have been using a 212j+ for several years now that does have a 2tb drive limit and it has been rock solid. Their software...

Correct me if I am wrong, but this specific 2 bay NAS only allows for 2tb drives (at least that’s what amazon reviews claim). Is it even worth it for such little capacity?

Elevator pitch: They run as storage independent from a personal computer. So you (or other users) can access it locally or remotely on any device. You can set up RAID to protect against drive...
