DS124 Surveillance Station

#1
Hi, and thanks!
Is a DS124 enough to support 2-3 2K cameras recording motion in Surveillance Station, and still have enough resources to act as file storage and Tailscale connection to home network for nightly offsite backups?

Or is that exceeding the DS124 resources?

Thank you for your inquiry! Your plan to use a DS124 for surveillance, file storage, and offsite backups seems feasible. The DS124 can handle the load of 2-3 2K cameras recording motion in Surveillance Station while still providing resources for file storage and Tailscale connection to your home network for nightly offsite backups. However, considering your requirements and for added peace of mind, you might want to consider the DS223 model. It comes with an extra 1GB of RAM, which could provide a bit more headroom for your tasks. Alternatively, if you're not looking to expand the surveillance setup in the future, using just one bay of the DS124 could also be an option to ensure optimal performance.
