Happy to see a bit of a retrospective. Bought this a 18 months ago to replace an aging synology DS212+. Wanted something that would last me 10 years or so, and something that runs plex. Your content back then helped me decide. Has been doing its job well so far. It's a bit loud for me, but that's due to the toshiba drives I bought. Had one hiccup with it suddenly not being accessible anymore that was a bit of a headscratcher, but managed to fix it.
I bought one two years ago after your review. Love it!
Having brand choices with the drives, memory, etc. were required for me. Mine thankfully did not have soldered ram.
Bought a 664 18mos ago based on the review & with input from Robbie & Eddie. VERY happy. Though I'm NOT a power user, the system is quiet and just does its job. Agree with today's review - and now am happier about the 664 decision.
Bought it before Christmas, after your reviews. I'm happy with it, even though it's my first NAS ever.
Thanks for choosing QNAP! :)
Great video. I have a TS-853 Pro and it's time to get something newer than my 9yr old NAS. I may go with the 6 bay version of this.
I bought the 2 bay version of this based upon your original review, mainly because finding a 12v DC CCTV nvr was proving impossible (for a boat) I have to say this was a much better choice thank anything else with the 8 channel QVR Pro included in the price, with a much slicker operating system than Hikvision, which was still 48v so not ideal. Plex is great but does sometimes randomly need restarting. Much appreciated and for price I’d highly recommend also
That's right! I was hit with "Deadbolt" a few years ago and was saved by my backup. However disabling the admin account, adding 2 tier security and a few more things. Still have backup though....
I also bought one of these around 2 years ago partially based on your review, I don't have soldered ram thankfully, I Really wish I hadn't have gone for the QTS operating system. I am kicking myself now.
I've bought a 664 a month ago and I'm really happy so far. I'm using it with four 18TB discs and a NVME SSD inside for now and mostly it's there to run my Plex server. :D
And by the way for anyone wondering about soldered RAM: Mine came with swappable RAM, I've put 16GB in it without any problem and from what I've heard that should be the norm rather than an outlier.
I bought this around 2 years ago based on your initial review and guides and I do like it however, it does have its gripes. The two major gripes for me are are the fact that the HDD's will NEVER go to sleep!! For some reason the 464 always seems to be wanting to access my HDD's when nothing is scheduled or being requested. The other major gripe is that it doesn't see my UPS when being powered up which causes a warning and subsequent shutdown even though there is no power issue at all. I have tried many workarounds for this with no success. It's not a bad machine otherwise.
Hoping UGreen pushes QNAP on the small form factor all flash system: with comparable CPU.
You have just recommended this to me. Are there particular memory sizes which do not come pre soldered and are expandable.
I have a 453BT3 and feel it still keeps up with the 464 though the ram is DDRL3 and CPU Is older Celeron.
The TSx53-B/Be model is proven to be the most impactful release for QNAP. They have kept that same design for years
Is there a link to the pcie upgrade? Like what brand did you buy to upgrade it to 10gb
I’m really on the fence between this and the Asustor Nimbustor 4 gen 2. Given the asustor offers 4 nvm drives and i can just use any os like unraid I really think which one is best
Should I encrypt drives for Plex usage on TS-464? Thanks!
On Amazon, it wasn't available until December of 2022? It only really matters to me because I am trying to figure out if I should wait for the upgraded version.
I put 16GB in my QNAP TS-453 Pro. It's rated as max 8GB. Everything reads and looks good, but I don't know what good it does, except give me something to do a small video about. Do you think it would work. I did testing and it passes.
anyone try installing a sas - pcie lsi-card ?
Let's be real, you reviewed it two years ago. It wasn't available in the US without direct importing from Honk Kong for $1,000 until like six months later. I called the NA QNAP Sales office out in CA, and asked where their current product was. I was told they aren't allowed to list the newest product until they cleared out old stock a bit more, and then he attempted to shill 10 year silicon on me with ancient hardware for MSRP. Hung up the phone and built my own NAS based on AMD Milan.
I think this is a tad unfair. He’s not the company but a reviewer. That’s it. Blame the company, write to them or it’s retailers that sell the brand.
@@stevegeorge7773 I don't see in my post how I'm laying this at the feet of the reviewer - my criticism was entirely leveled towards QNAP. It was in fact his very well-done review that made me curious as to the QNAP solution. The company just failed to deliver to consumers and that should *absolutely* be covered in a retrospective on said product - a company that 'releases' a product to reviewers without stocking the damn thing on the shelves isn't worth supporting. It wastes reviewer time because the product doesn't actually exist in the marketplace (yet), and it wastes consumer time for the same reason.
@@FrenziedManbeast well, there is no evidence of that as I purchased one without any problems. So... The criticism I only have is how the power socket need be something that locks the cable in as there’s a very big risk of it falling out. And the QNAP customer service for logging issues and it addressing them is lacking. Otherwise it’s an okay product, thus far.
@@stevegeorge7773 That's an interesting goal post you just moved from your OP. One of the great things about the internet is there *IS* available evidence if you have the ability to form basic queries and thoughts. I provided anecdotal evidence of my firsthand contact with North American QNAP Sales Office after the initial review on this channel. In fact, here is a video from this *very RUclips Channel* discussing the problem at length: v=VgfR9T_9cOQ
Memory upgrades are a deal-breaker for me, I had no idea they had fixed it to the board, I'd never buy any NAS with fixed memory. Of all the NAS systems I was considering this model was a possibility, but not now. In a way that's great, Synology is gone, the only QNAP I was looking at is gone. I don't live in the US or Germany so we're not allowed to buy a Ugreen, we're down to a Terramaster or build my own. As I really want to now add 10G this looks like a self-build. As it will be on 24/7 I'm now looking for power saving. I had no idea the 464 was 2 years old, time flies!
Why you are not mentioning low reliability of TS-x64 series??? Many many devices got burned or faulty motherboard which is not reparable and should be sent or back to seller or back to Qnap for repair or replacement? I have VERY negative experience with TS-464 which just stopped working after 2 weeks after purchase!!!
And when I started digging, suddenly found that there are many people with the same problem! Just do not promote this series of Qnap as it is crap!
Completely agree it's a complete pile of shite. Had two turn up faulty, with a known design fault concerning the second PCI-e slot. Gave up on QNAP after that and stuck with a DS920 plus a DIY one that I built.
I would never buy a NAS on the basis of Plex ability. Plex is rubbish and doesn't handle TV shows properly which are a big part of my media, so Plex is an irrelevance for me.
Reputation based on 2 year old incidents is a bit of an "iffy" thing too.
So, one in each direction there.
I will say QNAP support has been really excellent for me - something you don't mention. When I have had issues with QNAP they have got back within 24 hours and set up remote access and fixed my device, no charges incurred.
But the interface is a bit clunky.
I know you are a Synology man. I have stuck with Asustor which runs Emby (far better than Plex) extremely well, has tons of capability for backup solutions for my PCs and is regularly updated, plus expandability and external connectivity.
Horses for courses
May I ask how Plex isn't handling TV shows properly? I have about 16Tb of 1080p and 2160p movies and TV shows on my TS-464, and I can't say I've ran into any transcoding issues. Only time there can be some issues is if you're an anime fan or someone who is use to subtitles, as depending upon Burned Subtitle settings, certain non SRT-formats like .ass can require a temporary change in Subtitle mode, otherwise the Plex and 464 run smooth as butter.
@@jjwaltz7409 Indeed. I have named folders with show IDs as suggested in naming schema.
As one example, I have British TV's Hornblower series and I have the A-Team.
In Shows page, only 20 shows are there of about 30.
One of those is Hornblower, many are missing.
If I go into Hornblower it shows 4 seasons. The first 3 are A-Team seasons. The fourth is Hornblower Season 4.
Inside that, ALL the Hornblower episodes from all seasons are listed together.
Another example, House of Cards contains hundreds of episodes, all marked as Reacher when I go into the HofC page. I never knew Reacher had so many seasons and episodes! And most of them play any show at random seemingly, from anywhere on the NAS.
It's useless to me. Emby shows everything in it's right place.
I have a lifetime Plex pass but it gets you no support. I have given up using it after weeks of trying.
