Means IF one disk fails you don’t lose any data - replace the bad disk, and rebuild the array and all will be well (this has happened once with a bad drive). To point #3 - no, you don’t specify which bay or drive yo copy files to… best to have at least two drives (may as well get 8Tb ones…) and set it up in a RAID array… there are different RAID setups you can choose (have a search and read) but I just sue Synology Hybrid setup - this has one disk tolerance for failure. QNAP is also well regarded, but both it & Synology have a good range of software they can run - your Synology has a Torrent downloader available from Synology themselves, and works fine. !Gbs ethernet will be even better and no, you won’t have to worry about any buffering. I use a Synology NAS myself, and stram tv and movies to my Apple Tv4k over 5gHz wifi (the NAS lives upstairs, so noise isn’t relevant - but it is quiet). Thanks in advance for taking the time to read my message! Will 1 Gbps ethernet be enough for playback without buffering?.Shall I install a torrent client on the NAS directly or shall I still use the Mac mini and transfer the downloaded file once completed to the NAS?.What protocol shall I use to avoid buffering on Infuse? Do I need to configure “SMB Legacy” on the NAS, too?.Would it be possible to leave 1 TB for a Time Machine?.Can I use 1 bay for the movies and the second for backing-up the first HDD? Would that be the recommended workflow and what setting-up shall I need to do?.How noisy is the NAS and do you have recommendations regarding low-noise HDD?.If anyone using Synology NAS + Apple TV 4K + Infuse…could you share your feedback, what you like, what you don’t?.Today, I download on my Mac mini with uTorrent 4K UHD HDR movies and I use an Apple TV 4K with Infuse and all works like a charm. I am considering now a Synology NAS DS718+ with 2x4TB or 2x8TB. Just one thing, I had buffering once so I had to chose the “legacy” protocol for SMB. ![]() ![]() I’m totally convinced so I took the yearly subscription and I’m happy so far. It’s going to be one month since I use Infuse.
