NAS - Enquiries - 11-11-2024
I'm have a Synology DS413j used as a simple NFS/SMB share for an OSMC media centre (Kodi) and for accessing media files from a Linux desktop and Windows laptops.
The NAS is running SHR with 4xWD HDDs giving 3.6TB at 64% utilisation.
I have a separate cheap (crappy) NVR with 2 IP cameras which will increase to 4. The NVR is next to useless for reviewing footage, especially searching for events, and I want rid.
The DS413j is 12 years old and I'm of a mind to replace it with once which combines the roles of a simple media server and surveillance station. I am considering QNAP given the 8 included camera licenses.
Does this make sense? I am leaning towards the TS-264 but could you please give me your thoughts. Also any guidance on drive configuration (HDD/SDD) would be appreciated.
Thank you.
