Hello
Short version:Has anyone got experience of using a Google coral accelerator with a QNAP (esp. the TS-364) please?
Background: my two-bay Netgear ReadyNAS is a dozen years old; working well as a mirrored pair but I fancy upgrading from it to give me RAID5 with SSDs, and also more CPU performance so I can use a new NAS box as a bit of a server too. The new three bay QNAP TS-364 is interesting, as is a home-grown solution using TrueNAS or similar running on a HP Proliant gen8 microserver. this is for a home GbE network with three or so computers connecting to the NAS, LAN only.
in either case I hope to use frigate.video with a Google coral accelerator; in fact, the QNAP is designed for use with one (and I should be able to get TrueNAS to work with it too).
In the case of the TS-364, I presume that if I have (say) eight RTSP streams presented on ethernet, I should be able to use the QNAP to do image classification of the stream content and record short video or jpeg snapshots of recognised images. Does this sound feasible?
The benchmark scores for the new QNAP and for the gen8 Microserver Xeon version are comparable so the available server "power" should be adequate in each case (plus I might run MPD or Plex or similar).
