    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    I can't cool the room any better than what they have it at is what I meant. Unless it is a 10 minute fix it ain't going to happen.

    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    We're just going to leave it out of the cabinet and run the risk of a little excess dust. I'll just clean it for them more often. The temps of 38-39 at idle will be what it is at this point.

    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    It is all under idle conditions. It is a QNAP 451+ with WD Red 3TB HDD. There is not much I can do about temp outside of the cabinet as they tend to keep their office fairly warm. Right now the idle temps are 37, 38, 39.

    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    There is no way to cool them any better than what is going on right now. The owner keeps his rooms at 80 degrees or so. I can't keep this any cooler than this.

    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    So you guys are saying that the difference of 3 degrees makes a big difference.

    What backup software do you use?

    I know the backup 3-2-1. I am doing that. I am on CrashPlan. I am downloading to a drive someone takes home every night. I am even going to send it to a NAS off site besides the onsite NAS. I was just wondering if I should also use 2 types of backup to the NAS i case one doesn't work...

    Is 41 degrees C too hot?

    I am debating on whether to place my NAS in a closed cabinet. The temp goes from Disk 1 - 37, Disk 2 - 39, Disk 3 - 39 to 1 - 40, 2 - 41, 3 - 41. Is that too hot. The reason why the cabinet is because the area it will be in outside the cabinet is a dusty area and that is beyond my control. I...

    What backup software do you use?

    I started using File History and it seems to work real well for a backup. I don't know how easy it is to restore from this as I have NEVER had to restore anything. It really looks like NetBak has a restore button. Would it be wise to use NetBak also? Just curious. Thanks.

    User settings?

    What is the best way to set up users? There will be three computers in the house and no one will have any more privileges than the other. All will be saving things to a QNAP 451+. All would be an administrator, and all info would tend to be shared. I'm not sure if I should just leave everyone as...

    Router settings problem.

    At my friends I set up a NAS which as you all know is pretty easy. I set up the 451+. Well, he has a surveillance company that does his surveillance setup for him and has it set on the router. The problem was that the NAS messed up a port he needed and the company had to reset it back up which...

    What backup software do you use?

    I am not as experienced as you guys for sure. I did talk to Crashplan, Carbonite, and Backblaze and none support backups from a NAS is what I found out. I was not planning on doing that anyway. In the system that I am setting up for my friend there will be 6 computers that will need to be...

    What backup software do you use?

    Does it work anything like a carbonite or crashplan online backup. Does it work in real time?

    What backup software do you use?

    I have a QNAP 415+ NAS. I am planning on doing an online backup and onsite to the NAS. Does anyone else do this? If so, what do you use to backup to the NAS? I can't seem to find anything that backs up online and will do it to the NAS also. Any help would be appreciated.

    Need an easy to use NAS.

    I understand that Raid is not a backup. It is a hell of a lot more secure than just having one drive on a computer with your information though.

    Need an easy to use NAS.

    With people's experience using a NAS which one seems to be the easiest to use? I am getting this for a friend of mine and he wants some things to be able to do. He wants to be able to access with his iPad at home and on the road. His co worker needs to be able to access it when he is on the...

    What NAS would fit this bill?

    I am looking for a NAS that has good security. I mean, the least likely to lose info if a failure happens. I don't know how else to explain it. Also, I want one that is easy for someone to access when not at home. For instance, I have some things I want to download to the NAS when I am on...

    QNAP TS-412-US question.

    I have been out of the loop for a long while when it comes to NAS but have a question about the QNAP TS-412-US as compared to the synology ds413j. It all comes down to Raid 5 and how each works. I read somewhere that the synology hybrid Raid 5 you are able to have different sizes of hdd and...

    New Synology 1010+

    So if I do a Raid 5, I can have 4 now and add a 5th later, great. What about the hybrid raid that they have. Recommended or not?, and could I add a 5th later also.

    New Synology 1010+

    I have two brand new Hitachi drives to use and 2 Samsung F3. I don't have a fifth on yet if I would go with the 1010. If I get the 1010 do I need the fifth right away?

    New Synology 1010+

    Has anybody tried both of these? I am just curious which one people prefer?
