How many times did I say “Qnap” 😅
So Qnap over synology🤔
a lot of times, however thanks so much for uploading this and doing the breakdown. I love the content and definitely will be watching more. Very informative and I made my business decision based off this video. Thanks!
PLEASE give us more content from setting up the studio! Btw, so cool to see you know about this stuff. I am also into filmmaking and servers. So nice to see that people know how to do simple installations like that.
Great to see you back. This was the type of video I needed two years ago when trying to search for how to set up a NAS for video editing.
Dang late for you but hopefully it helps some peeps lol. Glad to be back :)
Thank you for this. No one has done a video truly showing everything. Again thank you.
Of course! I was so flustered when I set up my first one lol. Glad this helped :) part two should be out next week. That’s where it really gets good with setting up the nas on the network for backups.
@@JustinPorterMedia Yes so I am located in WV and in a rural area and with this currently a part time thing I really don't have internet that anything above the dial up speed lol. So I am trying to start with setting up just a NAS to work off until they get us fiber which is suppose to be coming this year or first of next.
I am at this stage. This is exactly what I needed. It would be great to go into remote editing with this system and sending files etc. Awesome stuff as usual.
Oh yea. Honestly remote editing would be hard since it’s all internet based. It would be better to sync your nas to you editors nas so files automatically download and update on both systems. You could basically do a two way sync between them 🙌🏾
Love it!!! Ur literally doing my dream job, Cinematography and networking. Keep up the good work my idol!
Phenomenal. Im actually at this step right now. Thank you for this video. More importantly strength, peace, comfort and divine help to your family.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it 🥹
Great to see you back making videos!! Been thinking about your family! 🙏
Thanks so much man. It’s been a hard month but I’m happy to be back :)
Dude this video is really well produced. Nice seeing the update on the studio and having you walk us through the steps of setting up a NAS. Appreciate your content!
Thank you so much. I’m so happy to hear that it helped. Part 2 I plan to make next week and get uploaded 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@JustinPorterMedia Did you ever get part 2 done and uploaded? I can't seem to find it. Hopefully I just overlooked it.
@@benndavison9171 whew. We filmed it but need to get it edited.
Thanks, this was exactly what I was looking for. Going to look for the set video now.
... and a funny side note: I've installed the same Milliken carpet in my hotel over here in Germany. It reduces sound from walking etc. incredibly well! ;)
Getting a NAS was game changing for us. Awesome Content!
It’s the best. Seriously love how powerful they are and how they help teams
Hey man love the videos as a new wedding videographer these videos are really good! Keep it up they have helped me a lot
So helpful and well-explained.
That’s a beastly looking machine. Such a great video!
Thanks so much for watching :)
Awesome to see a glimpse of the new studio brother!! Waiting on the full studio tour 👀👀 and happy to see you starting back up on RUclips, great NAS explanation and walkthrough!!
- Excel
Ayeee hope you been well bro.
Heck yea man when it’s done you know I’ll do a tour 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@JustinPorterMedia much love, can't wait!!
LOVE YOUR PASSION KEEP DOING GREAT THINGS NO MATTER THE UPS AND DOWNS YOU LIVE TO LEARN SO YOU CAN LEARN TO LIVE YOUR DREAMZ BIG SALUTE TO YOU!!!!
I truly appreciate that so much. It means the world. There’s definitely some down days but I’ll come back to this comment when I get them 🔥🥹
Dude love your channel!
🔥🙌🏾 Thank you so much! 🙌🏾
WOW!!! This is a really good video. I'm not a professional like you are and I'm just getting into videography. I've already filled up a 4TB SSD and I'm need more space in my video editing computer! Many decisions to make and your setup seems like something I want! Thanks for making this!
Thanks so much for watching. If you already filled up a 4tb drive, I’d say it’s time for a nas. There’s some nice 8 bay Qnap systems that are around 700$. Then I’d recommend buying hard drives over time. You can actively add to your storage pool
@@JustinPorterMedia I think that is very good advice! I primarily shoot a lot of drone videos at 4K60FPS and I'm still trying to figure out how to organize... I think that I will organize each file by day versus project and leave them in place. When I move a project folder, to the "complete" folder, when I go back to it, I have to go Locate that file! Just learning this because I started shorts... Thanks for the additional info. QNAP! For long term storage, do like SSD or HDD?
Great solution…if you are a massive production studio with multiple staff members.
If you are a solo shooter, and shoot say 20 weddings a year, this is still a great solution. But if you’re sitting at home having run out of space on your external hard drives and thinking “man, I really need to look into a NAS” then bear in mind this is a well over $10,000 solution being presented.
Just remember you can buy drives over time. You don’t have to go all in, out the gate. Add to your raid array over time :)
Glad you are doing well. 💯🙏🏿
Thanks so much brother. Doing my best to smile in the rain 🥹
Such an insightful video. How I wish to have this also, but my currency to the dollar is a price to pay, but surely, one day.
Glad you are strong and back to do massive things
Great video! I would suggest going with SFP+ PCI card on your QNAP and use a DAC cable to connect back to your switch. SFP+ to RJ45 transceivers creates alot of heat and they are expensive compare to SFP+ or DAC cables.
The switch we have I only use the adapter for port 1. The other 8 ports are combo ports so I’m just running cat 6A directly in.
The dac solution I should do for the nas and switch for sure.
Exactly my thought but then I remembered that he already bought a DUAL 10Gbe RJ45 nic (guessing a X540-T2 intel ) for the QNAP NAS
JPM Academy bro?? Sign me up! Keep doing what your doing man 🤜🏻🤛🏻 #qnap
😎😎 I’ll be posting more about it in the coming weeks. Glad to have your support 🙌🏾🙌🏾
A brilliant video. The QNAP Managed switched that you brought for this setup was very smart idea indeed. Was just wondering if you will be setting up VLANs and then will be connecting WiFi access points to that same switch or you plan to connect a separate switch directly to the internet router and get Wifi access points configured on your router. Anyway good luck.
Hi Justin, this is a great explanatory video, it is difficult to find what people use as storage solution. Did you end up doing the second part?
Have you considered using LTO-8 or LTO-9 tape to backup? It is great for archiving and has a 30 year archival life. Also the tapes are low cost 😊 you can add this long term backup into your packages for weddings.
Does anybody know what happens when you fill up a drive? Do you just replace it with a new one, and the NAS knows what to do? Or will you have to format all the drives ? Or replace them all at once?
How fast will that NAS run? As I understand it, it comes with an Atom 2.8 Ghz processor. 8 Gig of DDR4 memory stock. It can be expanded to 128 GB though. Just curious as to what else have you done to get more speed out of it. JustWondering.
Hey buddy! Make sure you set your policies on the firewall to not let this thing access the internet. QNAP got crushed with a bitlocker virus a few months back.
You know it 🥹
Have you done any performance testing on this unit? Did you end up running QTS or QuTS hero? I think with the 8 core CPU it should run well for video editing on QTS with the 8GB RAM it comes with or run well for editing on QuTS Hero with at least 16GB RAM. But I don't yet have performance feedback from editors for this unit.
Performance is phenomenal. I have a part 2 coming but we get about 6-800 mbs write and 1100 read. I have 4 2 tb ssds setup for read cache too.
We edit b raw 6k from 2 workstations and export from an export station at the same time and no system has any issues.
I also want to setup smb multichannel to see what improvements I could get. As of now with the default I’m a happy camper lol
Also, I’m running QTS
@@JustinPorterMedia
SMB multichannel should increase throughput but adds latency and may not always be the best option for video editing.
LACP link aggregation can allow multiple editors to get more throughput. And that should not have a significant increase to latency. But LACP likely won't make a single user get more throughput and usually only helps for multiple users accessing the nas at the same time.
Deffo something for the future!!!!
What laptop did you say you personally edited from? Was thinking a pimped up Macbook... but you may have a better solution.
It’s definitely amazing to have. I actually edit from my desktop mainly. The laptop is just for when I have to travel but usually nothing extensive. It’s an MSI creator Z16P.
Awesome video!
Do you have an affiliated link to the G shuttle by chance? Want to support you by getting that! Been wanting a local copy station besides copying to External drives 😅
Oh yep. Let me add it to the description. I appreciate you 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Hey Justin! Any chance you could point me in the right direction to the next video? Exploring some of these options. Thanks for the helpful information man!
Yooo I'm so sorry to everyone that's been waiting haha/. I legit am recording it today. Got the first part done :)
Ayyyeee no worries bro@@JustinPorterMedia
did you use a specific paint brand? are u happy with it? mind sharing the brand and color.
i'm looking for something similar for home office/studio.
appreciate u.
-colton 🤟🏼
Hey. I used the Behr brand paid from Home Depot. Actually got the color from Landon Bytheway. It’s called “little black dress”.
@@JustinPorterMedia thx for prompt response and info. congrats on new space. looks like much fun! 🤟🏼
Is the UPS not underpowered?
No. They have a few different ones though that allow more wattage
Why did I watch this? I’m still trying to figure out my Canon M50 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 haha I love this. It’s ok, you’ll be ready for a nas by next week 🔥🔥
@@JustinPorterMedia lol! Hey, thanks for the reply. I’m a big time newbie trying to get into video. Seeing your stuff has been inspiring me to try it out. Do you offer a course? I don’t know where to begin. I just shot a wedding for a family friend, but that’s about it!
@@youtubecharlie1 oh that’s awesome. Glad to have your support too by the way.

@@JustinPorterMedia done!
Hoes it going. I am a employee at steadicam I work on all arms and pools I do repair and upgrades
I a huge tech guy and love you video but don’t spread miss information a 4 bay NAS isn’t slower then a 8 bay NAS …. But great content
That's 1 expensive set up. Is this a collab with Qnap?
Yes. Slightly. Qnap supplied the nas. I purchased all the extras and hard drives :)
Such an insightful video. How I wish to have this also, but my currency to the dollar is a price to pay, but surely, one day.
Glad you are strong and back to do massive things
It’s definitely not cheap I’d say but in the long run it is. Thanks so much for watching 🙌🏾🥹
