    DS1819+ and 10Gb Ethernet and M.2 Adapter Card E10M20-T1

    I’m sorry, I meant that question for the OP and their DS1819+

    DS1819+ and 10Gb Ethernet and M.2 Adapter Card E10M20-T1

    Basic question … what kind of Ethernet cable are you using? Try connecting the NAS/10GbE port with a different cable. Especially one marked Cat5E or Cat6. If that doesn’t work, also try plugging it into different 2.5GbE ports on your switch/router. If you can, try plugging into a different...

    Which one should I keep, Qnap TVS h674 I5 or Synology DS 1821+

    I’m late to the party here but … are you saying you fit all your original video files on the local NVMe drive? I’ll go ahead and share my experience, which may or may not matter to you. I have almost 50TB of “original” video files, and a NAS (coincidentally also a DS1821+, with 10GbE). I keep...

    N/AC/AX Mixed Wireless Mode, “Maximizes performance”?

    AC/AX only isn’t an option there, so no. Set it to N/AC/AX only if it makes you feel better. If your devices all support N or AC or AX, they’ll connect that way anyway. Using “Auto” (leaving A/N/AC/AX all active) won’t matter much unless you have devices you need to upgrade / replace anyway...

    ASUS GT-AX11000 Pro vs ASUS GT-AXE11000

    I have not owned either of these routers. However, I previously relied on the 2-channel AX88U using Broadcom’s BCM4908 CPU; the 3-channel AXE-11000 (1x 2.4GHz / 1x 5GHz / 1x 6GHz) uses the seemingly-identical BCM49408. Both have Broadcom’s BCM43684 radio, with the AXE adding RF components for...

    Experiences in Roku vs. Ad-blocking

    As I mentioned in my original post, DNS Director did nothing to affect the Roku. So no, I can’t just do that. I tried.

    Experiences in Roku vs. Ad-blocking

    Hi, I just wanted to share some info about my recent battling with Roku, in case it's helpful to anyone else. I mention (below) an SNBforums thread that helped me resolve this, and I want to thank two posters there (Crimliar and drinkingbird) who gave enough info to help me solve my problem. I...

    RAID 5 vs RAID 6 ??

    It’s been a while since I’ve encountered someone so confidently wrong. Peace, dude. 🖖

    RAID 5 vs RAID 6 ??

    What you’re missing is that with an intelligent workflow, real-time preview is rendered in real time and isn’t “written” anywhere. Editing in low enough detail that you can watch in real-time is easy now. Especially if you properly use proxy files. Playback in real-time with 1080p H264 proxies...

    RAID 5 vs RAID 6 ??

    Which is why I don’t use a write cache that doesn’t meaningfully benefit my use case.

    RAID 5 vs RAID 6 ??

    That’s why I don’t write the rendered video directly back out to the NAS. I’ll do it to local storage, a single output file is very very small compared to my source material, especially since it is more heavily compressed than my high-bitrate source videos. And as you noted, writing back to the...

    RAID 5 vs RAID 6 ??

    Um, it SHOULD be 99.99% read. That’s how the technology of video editing works. If it’s not 99.99% read, you’re doing something wrong. When you’re editing a video, you’re using editor software (Adobe Premiere, FCPX, etc.) to build a timeline of what clips of which source videos* you want shown...
