    TS-509 with 4GB RAM

    Don, you are right that Dennis mentioned that Kingston 667MHz DDR2 Non-ECC CL5 SODIMMs worked, but Dennis removed the 1GB DIMM and installed the 2 Kingston SO-DIMMs that he purchased as kit - usually a troublefree & safe solution. However, I would like to install an additional 1GB SO-DIMM only...

    TS-509 with 4GB RAM

    I like the idea of 'lifeisfun' as an upgrade to 2GB might deliver a speed boost at a rather low cost. (Buying only 1x 1GB SODIMM vs. buying 2x 2GB SODIMMs) The question is whether any 1GB SODIMM would be compatible. Does anyone know the brand and specs of the 1GB SODIMM that is installed by...

    Build Your Own Atom-based NAS

    Thanks for the speedy response and the link. I also found some other websites and will calculate the wattage of the power supply. I guess that my current Enermax 420W PSU is overkill and needs to be replaced with a more power-efficient '80 Plus' PSU in the 200W range.

    Build Your Own Atom-based NAS

    The D945GCLF2 looks indeed interesting because it has Gigabit-LAN which the D945GCLF did not have. I just wonder about the throughput - it's supposedly a RealTek chip. I still have a Promise P-ATA RAID controller and 5x P-ATA 200GB HDDs lying around and wonder what power supply would be needed...

    TS-509 Noise?

    It also depends on the noise of the HDDs and where you want to put the TS-509. I have a TS-509 and think that it's not noisy. The fan is pretty big and doesn't have an annoying high pitch sound. You rather hear the sound of the airflow. Please also note that the fan adjusts speed depending on...

    Qnap TS-509 New Firmware performance & bug report

    Thanks to QNAP Support, especially Ivan. I received the TS-509 back from the dealer and updated the firmware according to your instructions. Then installed the HDDs, configured the TS-509 and let it run overnight to build the RAID 1 volume. The problem that I described earlier is solved and...

    Qnap TS-509 New Firmware performance & bug report

    Thanks Ivan. I already shipped the TS-509 back to the shop from whom I bought it and requested a replacement unit. If the replacement unit shows the same problems, I will ask for a refund and buy another NAS. You should have received an inquiry (submitted through your website) from me last...

    Qnap TS-509 New Firmware performance & bug report

    Thanks for the advice. I configured the TS-509 again and let it run overnight to create the Raid1 volume. I was browsing through the web GUI and everything looked fine. The status of the logical volume (RAID1) is 'Ready' and I could copy files to this volume. Hoping that the TS-509 will keep...

    Qnap TS-509 New Firmware performance & bug report

    TS-509 Pro loses configuration I would be happy if I could use my TS-509 at all. Ordered it last weekend, received it this Wednesday and tried to set it up yesterday. Didn't look very difficult. Installed two Hitachi HDS721010KLA330 (1TB) in tray 1 and 2 and connected the TS-509 to my D-Link...
