Exactly, and that was the reason I did the disk check, I prefer to do it now, and be sure the disks are fine, than regretting it later when one fails. It's still no 100% guarantee that they will work...

Copying stuff at the moment, will take very long. Disk check took around 96 hours.

Like I said before, the Raid 6 was configured in less than 10 minutes, like it also was on my Qnap, the NAS would have been ready after 10 minutes if I didn't agree to make the very thorough...

At 30% now, come on, I wanna try some stuff :(

Got it today, installed the RAM expansion, and I'm currently installing it, will take some time..............

Creating Raid 6 now, leaves you at 36.34TB total.

It's quite funny when you think,...

I'm using the APC Back-UPS Pro 550 (model BR550GI) and I'm very happy with it. It's 330 Watts, and I plugged my NAS to it, and my modem. I'm also using it for my ethernet connection, so it goes first...

I know about all the Raids, and my idea was to use Raid6 anyway, don't mind that much about speed. I don't want to lose too much space, otherwise I will end up again with limited space. I wanted to...

Ok, so apparently Raid5 with hot spare only makes sense if you use more than 1 Raid. Got that told at the Synology forums.

:lol: that's true, let's just hope it never comes :lol:

Btw, what is your opinion on using Raid? I read some stuff about it now, and some say it's not the best option, as...

I ordered it today with 48TB, and I also ordered the 2GB RAM expansion for it, was only 45€. Had to do the payment via bank transfer though.

Just got a mail from the guy from the shop, and he only wrote to me, then continue to order at Cyberport. WTF!!

I wrote him back now that this was only a question, I didn't mean to offend him.

Gonna probably buy it next week, I'm very close, 90% of me are fine with it :)

How much would you think I could sell my Qnap 659 Pro II with 6x2TB disks? I only find prices of the newer model, the...

The LAN bonding is called link aggregation, and yes, the 2413+ has that, although you need a switch with a IEEE 802.3ad standard, and as I looked around a bit, they're quite expensive. On the...

My NAS is almost full now, only have 400MB left, and this is because of the loads of 1080p movies and series, which take now already 6.5TB of space.

I already deleted some of my retro stuff, as I...

I didn't test the Bit Torrent feature yet, as I think there's no need for me, as my PC is running 24/7 anyway, and it's easier to manage.

I don't need the print server.

Might check out the...

As I copied my movies to a new disk now, I still had to copy 1 movie to the NAS. It was 15GB in one file, and it was transferred with an average of 90MB/s, which is quite amazing.

Definitely a lot happier than with the Buffalo Terastation. But I'm glad I sent that back at that time, it was painfully slow, and just imagine, that was only 1TB, I could have put other HDDs inside,...

I set it up yesterday, with 6 Hitachi Deskstar 5k3000 2TB disks, and set it to Raid 5 mode. This was done very fast, I was quite surprised, the NAS did the whole Raid 5 configuration in about 10...
