QUOTE(ozak @ Jul 30 2010, 01:05 PM) Ain't it expensive with that not much feature? WD comes with 4TB which costs around 800 in total. This means the 4 bay raid 5 capable enclosure only costs 1000. I can't find any 4 bay raid 5 enclosure on market that costs 1k only. For the software part, I use openVPN to connect to servers in US/cyberjaya/etc to do my bt download and I going setup an atom PC to handle that. I am also going to setup at DC++ hub to serve file within Malaysia uniFi users. If someone can tell me an enclosure that has a build in openVPN function with customizability of a PC, I can consider other brands. Got online review says WD sharespace is SLOW. Maybe I should build an ATOM PC with a RAID controller instead. This post has been edited by yushin: Jul 31 2010, 09:27 AM |

QUOTE(ozak @ Jul 31 2010, 02:41 PM) Did I read the wrong thing? The WD website state US639.99 = RM2048. Compuzone price state RM1800.  Why don't just get 1 that can handle all which don't need a pc? Until now I still don know which enclosure can handle bt/download over openVPN without a PC. |

After solving the my unifi router problem, next step would be upgrade of the NAS.
Now I am looking at these 2 Synology models, DS410 and DS410J. Besides the faster throughput for DS410, what else I get from DS410 comparing to DS410j for paying extra rm650? |

Finally got the DS410. Formating RAID5 with 4 x 1TB hard drives takes so long...

Hello,
Anyone here knows how to turn a Synology DS410 into a SOCKS Proxy server? Do Synology has an installation module for that feature? |

I like the cloudstation feature in DSM 4.0.
Now I no need to worry about dropbox 2GB size limit.  |

QUOTE(ozak @ Mar 13 2012, 09:03 AM) New feature? I haven't upgrade the firmware. The new feature that encourage me to upgrade from DSM 3 to DSM 4 is the cloud station feature. |

QUOTE(wwkkww @ Mar 13 2012, 09:13 AM) if i upgraded to DSM4.0 will all the settings gone? I think it took me less than 30 minutes on my DS410. how long does it take for the upgrade process? About 5 minutes to download the new firmware, load it to the DS410 then everything is automatic. My DS410 setting was not affected. Now feel the itch to get DS1511+.  |

My DS410 runs raid 5 on 4HDD. I would need to put all the 4HDD into DS413 in correct sequence. Theoretically it should work lar...
Or I just buy a cheap DS1xx to network backup DS410? In case DS410 is dead I can restore everything from the dS1xx? |
