    Now that the OWC Mercury Pro Dual U.2 exists, I've shifted my focus away from NVME NAS, toward NVME DAS. For $500, the Mercury gives me 8 NVME's. For not much more money than the QNAP unloaded, I got the Mercury plus 8 x 4tb NVME's. Much faster than the QNAP. Then I have my trusty HDD_based TruNas system for backups and fun.

    Talk about consistency. Every single video on this channel (and I watch all of them without exception) reliably has the following:
    - Robbie being excellent in his delivery, detail and articulation of obvious pros and cons of a system in question
    - Seagulls
    - Complaints about "slow" NVMe drives, completely ignoring the fact that any NVMe drive on a single lane will saturate all network bandwidth
    - A clown complaining in the comments about lack of ECC memory support
    - People finding things that are missing from a device in question: Robbie reviews a 4-bay device, they want an 8-bay. Robbie talks about an 8-bay, a clown turns up saying he needs a minimum of 20 bays, all full of 22TB drives storing his mission critical bird videos
    - People saying anything less than an EPYC with an RTX4090 is not sufficient for Plex
    - A long comment thread where two 'professionals' almost resort to insults on the basis of disagreement on ECC memory
    - A person knowing nothing about NAS, but certain he needs a pro-grade solution for his photography side hustle
    - A person running a decommissioned 2011 enterprise server idling at 900W, who thinks it's a better option than modern solutions
    Always a sight to behold. 🙂

    For NAS PCI 4 is not necessary ( The 10G ethernet or TB4 will be your bottleneck ) unless you want to use your nvme ssd internally for VM ( and deal with more heat and power consumption )

    • @InvisageStudios

      @randycastle5947 5 місяців тому +1

      yes!!
      This unit is so close to being perfect.
      If it had the ability to have up to 64GB of memory, 2 x 10gbe, support faster NVMe Gen4 and had an option for say 10 drive slots, then it would be close to as good as technology could offer today.
      The Flashstor 12 Pro is also worth looking at. It has support for 12 drives.
      The big thing for me is the price on the QNAP. If it was similar to the Flashstor 12 it would be a no brainer, even with less drive bays.
      As for Synology, I really don't think they will release a high performance 10gbe Flash only NAS. And if they did, expect to pay a lot for it!!! I really hope they prove me wrong as I would love to stick with Synology, but this QNAP is very tempting.

      For building, you'd struggle to do better than that Erying i9 board and the fractal node 804 (If you can get over the horrible trays) or maybe the Audheid 8 bay (keep an eye on the PSU choice. Both are super roomy and allow for tonnes of lifespan upgrades in H/W + that mobo+CPU combo is incredible

    Finally a consumerish NAS that supports something aside of M.2. For the price I'd have liked gen 4 but I'm guessing there aren't enough PCIE lanes for that. The real disappointment is the memory. I'd rather a slightly more expensive unit that could be upgraded to 64gb and supported ECC even if that made it a little larger. I can still see use cases for this but it really wouldn't have been hard to make this a real banger of a unit.

      No, but you can definitely connect an external USB, then boot with K/V/M attached, and F2/F12/Del into Bios, boot from the USB and boom...proxmox. don't overwrite the internal eMMc drive though, as that makes recovery impossible (warranty etc)

My point is that this perticular TBS-h574TX is just looking ugly Chinese. Cant they make it look squared or 19"?!? And this holds not only for QNAP, but many others that you even tested! Ugly boxes, and NOT SUFFICIENT. It would be cool to have a NAS with 8 PCIe 4 or 5 Bays but I guess, that is to come yet. Thanks for all those Videos that you made, I saw 99% I would guess

    I could live with the reduced data rates of the NVMe's but the memory being limited to 16 GB is a deal breaker for me.
    I would want to use it as a VM platform and that would require more RAM.
    Also it would be nice to have a 6 or 8 bay version as I would want to run RAID 6 and with current NVMe capacities RAID 6 would really cut into the total storage available.
    Perhaps the next generation of this device will be a viable option for my business needs!

    This NAS makes no sense to me: as a business user if I wanted a high speed portable NAS for production work I would list Registered ECC as a minimal requirement. This has the trappings of a business or pro series unit, but is instead a consumer grade platform with the artifice of enterprise trappings glued onto it. Factor in their asking price and it's a solid "not on your life" scenario. There are ways of getting these requirements into a smaller form factor chassis and keeping the weight down.

    • @nascompares

      Tbh I did think about highlighting the lack of ECC, but Intel Core processors and ECC support is...well...spotty at best. And given the thunderbolt connection (which tends to be on Int.Gfx systems, short of slamming a mad Xeon W processor in, I think ECC in this config was never gonna happen. Still, 16/12GB.....EH?

      Tell me about it - I just abandoned my current NAS which was a Z690 + 12500T because the cost of W680 + UDIMM ECC was laughably expensive. I just rebuilt with Epyc Milan on a proper server board because it was "economical" compared to chasing down DDR5 UDIMM ECC + suffering through getting it all setup.

For when data integrity matters, ECC is not an option. YMMV of course.
