A lot of their models can do video playback, but they don't rate them for anything higher than 720p. Regardless of what other factors, this may be the only detail you need: what Synology rates their models to do. It's about $100 cheaper than the DS916+ 2GB, and it would probably work fine (unless you really need the storage). What drives you to a 4-bay? The 2-bay DS716+II has 2GB RAM and is actually the top-of-the-line model for its size. I like to recommend 2GB for each person who will be streaming concurrently, on a regular basis. I would value your options and views.If you're going for media playback, the 916+ seems like it's the only choice out there for most people, if you're wanting a 4-bay. Other than the increase in bays and capacity benefits, would the hardware warrant to the upgrade if I'm willing to stick with ds video? DS416play runs on DiskStation Manager (DSM), the most advanced and intuitive operating system for network-attached storage devices that offers a wide range of applications from backup to multimedia for home and personal uses. Or do I stick with what I have and just upgrade my hard drives? Id like to use plex and to get the 4k transcoding rather than ds video - but I believe ill a need an Intel processor to get the full option (plus a licence) on plex.ĭo I replace my 215 with say 420+, move the 2x3gb drives over, add 2 new ones and swap to SHR. ![]() ![]() So the issue I have is the DS215 is 83% full (raid 1) and the wife is creating 100gb of content ever 4 months so will soon run out - I've given up getting her to cleanse the files. I use ds video and moments on my DS118 to access my media via phones and amazon fire stick. This is mainly for phone media, GoPro and DSLR storage, a bit of music and small amount of document storage. Hi, currently have 2 units running at home, my main one is the DS215 running 2 3GB drives, I have a backup in my detached office for my critical media onto the DS118 2GB, this is done over rsync. ![]()
