I actually already have a TS-453D. In it, I have two 6TB HDDs and two 12TB HDDs - setup in RAID between the two pairs. I have two 860 EVO SSDs installed for the QTS OS. I thought this would be a powerful enough NAS, but it struggles to play a single 720 video (h264 mkv with AC3 audio) if I tell it to play VOBSUB subtitles. It's playing directly through ethernet to my Samsung Q8FN TV, so I can't figure out why it struggles so much. Turning off the subtitles helps, so my best guess is that it just struggles to burn them in, but I would've thought it wasn't that bad. Is there anything I can do? I could go through my libraries, and try to pull out all of the PGS subtitles and make SRT versions, which seem to work fine. OpenSubtitles isn't reliable and never matches up.
