Seems that QNAP is more interested in serving the home/small business market than Synology is? I had decided on Synology for my first NAS system, now I may need to reconsider?
Can you just imagine if this hardware came out from Synology! How much sales they will do. How many people want to upgrade if there is something worthy
Synology dont care ‘they want now the enterprise money..thry give the finger to their home client base…thank u fir your money and loyalty and now go bugger buy qnap or ugreen…we have your money and u go away now…
jumping into the NAS systems synology honestly my first pick because of the software side for my needs, and would love to have seen more than hardware though.. its always neat to see stuff.
I need some help/advise setting up a QNAP. Im confused about volume setup. Do I create one volume for C:/Users/ or do I create one volume for C:/Users/ and have all users in one volume? Also, how do I get the C:/User/... to point to the NAS instead of local storage? I would like to set this up correctly the first time.
well the USB-4 -> SFP+ 10Gbit sounds very interesting considering the new AM5 motherboards will all come with USB-4 on... Easy networking on the ITX boards :D not so much for the "homelab" users with the switches... but a nice halfrack/10" switch with like 8x 2.5Gbit and 2-4x SFP+ 10Gbit would be nice but yeah either it is a lot more ports or it is only 2x SFP+ ports
Synology has really survived with a better and more secure software echosphere. I have more clients and vendors who attest by it. That said, for many SMB who don't need that, the problem is that Synology's continuous moves to a really forced-hardware method (use our branded, 2.5-3X normal cost) hardware is becoming problematic. When someone is selling you rebadged Toshiba drives at 3X cost, it just seems.. wrong.
When you literaly just upgrading your homeoffice-network to 2.5GBit and your new Qnap TS-464, while this video is running... your new setup immediately feels slow again 😩
I do liked it you being disco-lighted at times ;-) Does add an effect. Add seagulls and the show is complete! (joke!) Okay, I am a declared QNAP-fanboy but it has to be said, QNAP on the hardware-arena is again moving forward. Of course, at a price. I do also like the fact that they entered into the ARM arena, next to AMD's.I guess the Intel's are getting too expensive (or too many issues?) that they endeavour other CPU's too. And it is a nice bonus that QNAP now also will offer 10GBe - USB4 adapters, especially for those with unused USB4 ports on their NAS. As for SMB3 Multichannel, now that is an official standard with more & more vendors, you perhaps may want to dedicate a video about it. As it does have some caveats, such as the requirement(!) that the Client also has multiple adapters (of the same speed!). Synology has an excellent web-page where they do explain those caveats and also compare it to link aggregation.. Thanks for the videos, much appreciated!
@@nascompares No rush! I will attempt to do some testing myself too. But always, A L W A Y S appreciate all your efforts! Man, you could fill your channel with content multiple times a day, so much new news (worth noting). Whilst I myself are not really that interested personally, that Jonsbo is massively interesting for DIY. With the proper motherboard and CPU, it could potentially blow a ready-made system almost out of the water. Exciting times! (especially when you are into DIY) Anybody proclaiming they not found what they are looking for hasn't looked well enough IMHO.
Computex insanely loud, flickering overhead LEDs, ai focus I normally use was impossible with so many people. Also, you know this was a free video on the Internet bud?
What difference is there to the QNA-T310G1S? Works perfectly fine with TB3 or USB 4. Looks the exact same product with a new model number and says USB 4 on the box. USB 4.0 is compatible with TB3 anyway. I just tested mine with my Lenovo X13 gen 3 AMD (USB 4.0 with no official Thunderbolt support) and it worked with no issues.
If this USB4 system actually happens, I can totally see them making smaller/larger variations...but it's whether it will auto negotiate down to 3.2 G1/2 as well..that's the big "?"
What a weird processors those home nases have. Guess it's time to look at 464 once again, shame, expected some nicer refresh to keep the hardware up with Asustor/Ugreen.

It's all about the $$$
Synology used to be 5 yrs behind Qnap ... now they are 10 yrs behind!
OMG! That switch! Stop! You're killing me. This stuff is incredible. I want it. I don't need it, but I WANT IT.
Love your coverage from Computex!

Thks
I am planning for the 12bay Thunderbolt NAS, coupled with the 8bay / 12bay JBOD (for archiving and backup)
nice.. that 1U rackmount with nvme or nic possibility looks awesome
Oh no! USB C expansion bay. Damn it man! I will never be able to retire!
See, deep down Robbie really does love seagulls. Just look at that shirt!
Isn't managed switch Layer 3 not just Layer 2 device?

The TB multichannel stuff will 10000% get a vid soon, just need the time to set it up

If QNAP were to use ARM processors as capable as an Apple M4 SoC then they would no longer hear a collective groan when ARM is implemented.
I can imagine a Qnap rep was around when you were holding the arm version with one hand thinking what the hell are you doing? Lol.
You are BANG ON!
Arm based. Yeah, this stuff will cost you an arm... And a leg...
clip on the mic, lock your iso, and lock your focus, please
Computex insanely loud, flickering overhead LEDs, ai focus I normally use was impossible with so many people. Also, you know this was a free video on the Internet bud?
I'm almost afraid to watch the video. You're ruining my retirement fund.
usb to 10Gb- about time someone makes this. Thanks for making an spf+ version too.

So still no TR-104C or TR-106C-like solution for a 4+ bay DAS RAID solution with USB 3.2 Gen 2/USB4 or Thunderbolt then?! 🤦♂

thanks for the news.
you must be elated that there's no seagulls at the show 😀
lol
It's kind of like the Seagulls keep flying overhead, shadowing you out.
Great coverage of Computex

usb 4 10gbe 👏
any progress on the software side? Is QuTS reliable enough now?
Great coverage thanks
