Thanks for the feedback.

Any idea interms of the speed when transfering files wirelessly. Time capsule vs NAS (Synology / QNAP).

Can i use a 1-bay for back up & storage for both PC & Mac?

basically, wireless N will be a good idea. but g also can. Wireless N will have higher speed than G. the faster speed the lesser time u need for this funcion.

1 bay for backup and storage for both PC & MAC.... no problem as long as you must have enough storage space for your PC and MAC.

PC: u can use the synology DATA replicator 3 or if you are using windows 7 than u also can use it's build in backup software.

Hi den,

I'm new in this techy thing but would like to know if i like to buy Synology DS109j 1bay, does it support Website Hosting with PHP+MySQL?

thanks

Hi, bro,

DS109j had been replace by DS110j ( better CPU: 800Mhz, better RAM : 128MB), price still same :RM 599.00

it support Up to 30 Websites

. With the built-in support of PHP and MySQL, users can develop a dynamic database-driven website by themselves, or install a variety of open-sourced programs on their Synology Disk Station.

If you are an experienced PHP programmer, you can develop interactive programs on Web Station, such as shopping site, blog, or bulletin board or download from : Synology Third-party applications are selected and tested by Synology to help Synology users install a variety of applications on their Disk Station


Up to 30 Websites

With Virtual Host, you can now host multiple websites on a single Synology Disk Station. After enabling the Web Station, you can host up to 30 websites on Web

hi,
any promo for TS-459PRO?
btw, in terms of actual performance, how does it differ from 239 Pro II?
thinking of upgrading my 109 to a dual-bay system...

This post has been edited by remysix: Mar 14 2010, 11:43 AM

TS459PRO is usingIntel® Atom D510 1.66GHz Dual-Core processor and 1GB DDRII RAM, vs 239PRO II using Intel® Atom D410 1.66GHz Single-Core processor and 1GB DDRII RAM,

so there is have difference in term of speed.

BTW, may I know what is your actual usage?

aiseh...meant to type 259 Pro vs 239 Pro... i know the proc different...just asking if you have any real life exp on these two...

actually, as i've mentioned, i wanna upgrade to dual bay...mmm 4-bay not sure lah...but mostly due to the storage needs for my collection...last time when i bought my qnap, only download the SD movie and now mostly in HD1080 and bdrip...even the anime is now in HD format, so the need for bigger storage arises. and then i also have the acryan POHD...playing the HD from my qnap...current setup is ok othen than the storage...but i'm also going to start with multiple HD streaming from my media player, notebooks and my desktop...so, wanna make sure my nas is up to the challenge...
so, again...any promo for any of the two?

239 pro , we had been stop to bring in, for 2 bays high performance series we bring in TS-259PRO.

actually, if you can consider:

TS410
TS259pro

any promo for the 259pro? free gift etc...
thanks

u got pm.

Hi denhock,

What is the new product line launch for Synology NAS ?

every year synology will release new model. like this year 2010, they had release :

DS1010+ ( replace DS509+)
DS710+ ( new model and better than DS209+II)
DS410 ( replace DS409)



so, if you see DSx10 mean this model is year 2010 product.

next model which will be coming soon estimate by may or June this year:

DS410+ (replace DS409+ )
DS210+ (replace DS209+II)
DS110+ ( replace DS109+)
RS810+ ( replace RS409+)


anyway, for existing Synology NAS user, you can download the latest firmware DSM 2.3 and enjoy new feature ...all is FREE.... ( they will release min 2 major firmware upgrade per year)... which will max up our $$$

Hi denhock,

Thanks a lot for your info. How about QNAP any new product launching or any new product currently u selling ?

yes. new model base on Atom D510 processor like:

TS259PRO
TS459PRO
TS659PRO
TS859PRO
TS-459U-RP/ TS-459U-SP



and this year they will (if follow the time table), TS12xx ( for 12 bays) and TS16xx ( for 16 bays) which can have up to 16 x 2TB ( about 30TB in single NAS)...




basically, QANP will release new model from time to time ( like NB) when they have new CPU model release by the CPU vendor ( like intel)
