Hello! My name on the forums before the reset was Jeremy.
I am about to buy and build a Synology NAS, such as the DiskStation DS420+, or the larger DS1621xs+. I'm not 100% on the model yet.
A NAS/fileserver of this capability should be able to host K13 and other libraries across a switched 1000mbit wired connection without any problem, and I have a robust WAN/LAN router/security device. I am the network/security engineer at home, and as such we don't have any network config or performance issues that we would be dropping this NAS into.
Does anyone have any experience either with Synology NAS, other branded NAS, or their own JBOD sort of NAS for storing libraries and samples for K13 + other libraries? If so, what was your experience like over time? Did you have any trouble with this config?
I've never stored any libraries or any of my music data anywhere but the local workstation, so this will be my first. Your experience on this would help! : ) Thanks
EDIT: forgot to mention -- there will be high performance (7200rpm, 4-6Gb/sec) drives inside.
