    IP Cam License

    I think what the vendors should do is have a sliding scale of camera licences built in depending on the model bought Basic model = 1 licence free Mid range model = 5 licences free Top of the range models = 10 licences free If you need any more, only then pay for the extra licences If I...

    Synology DS212 vs Netgear Readynas Ultra 2 - please help

    If you are connecting the Laptops using wireless, this will be the limiting factor for your overall speed Even wireless 'n' cannot match a 100mbit wired connection, which can only run at 12.5Megabytes/sec, whereas Gigabit can theoretically reach 125Megabytes/sec Both the NAS's you mention...

    Which Synology product? Suggestions please ...

    All the Synology models use the same 'software', so all the features are the same on all their models This means that you just need to decide how much storage space you want and choose the relevant size of the unit along with the performance As probably you know from your own searches, each...

    What do you think of this NAS scheme...

    As you have an off-site backup, then I think your are sorted I've never used time machine as I never get rid of files, and don't care about files changes, but in a work environment, I can see the advantages of this to recover previous versions or deleted files

    What do you think of this NAS scheme...

    The only draw back is no off site backup for the possibility of theft, fire, water damage, but if the data is not critical, then yes it's fine

    Need Advice for Buying a new NAS

    Are you looking for an all in one consumer ready built NAS that comply to your specs? If you are, then the choice is very small Almost all ready built NAS's come with a flavour of Linux and come with all the pre-installed software that the particular vendor supports at that time, and are ready...

    I had the same with my DS209+II and I contacted Synology support who recommended an RMA as it was still under warranty I then received a new 209+II Make a backup of your data as soon as you can, because mine eventually stopped working completely

    Noisy DS212J

    Link Aggregation? (Win2003/Synology)

    1. I don't think you can 'team' two different makes of NIC for Link Aggregation, they need to be the same make unless there is some special piece of software that I haven't heard about 2. Yes the Pro/1000 PT can be an option - I have the same NIC in my workstation 3. I would assume so...
