That's alotta files being served up at once.

Is an AMD Athlon 5350 enough for a home NAS?

A fucking toaster is enough for a home NAS

These are prosumer/SMB NASes though, there's cheaper home stuff.

Sneak one of these into a tier 1 datacenter and plug it into the main switch and you've got the RIAA/MPAA worst nightmare seedbox right there.

>>60695956
Ya. It's even enough for a not entirely modest Gentoo media desktop / server combo. Not ideal, but easy enough.

That's a lot of concurrent connections.

>>60695505
Is it bad that I want that?

>>60695505
why would you need a good CPU and above 8 GB ram for NAS? im honestly curious, how does that affect anything? All you do is move files in and out.

>>60695956
Not if you're encoding video on the fly.

>>60701268
No, not really.

>>60701326
This is not a NAS for private, this is for SMB, NAS here are expected do transcoding, handle a lot of connections and handle VMs
You're not doing that on a damn atom

These things aren't jokes, this will probably cost well over $1300 without any HDDs

Didn't qnap increases prices across the board because of increase in manufacturing costs ?
I have no idea where QNAP spends all the money, the CPUs they use on the low-mid range stuff are all about $100 or less.
The 453B uses a cpu that intel lists at $107, but the 453B sells for $700+

>>60701326
Virtual machines, but more commonly these days is Plex - which usually means trancoding videos on the fly.


I too was thinking that ryzen would be great for a NAS system, but I was thinking of something in the budget range, since most NAS under 800 bucks are celerons/atoms or worse some ARM based cpus.
Even in the $1000 range you still get i3 intel cpus in qnap systems.

I can imagine a small to mid size business needing one of these.

There's cheaper versions.

These premium products are just what AMD needs.

>>60701611
I want lower priced nas.

>>60701669
Build one your damn self then, all these prebuilt NAS units are standard x86 hardware in a fancy case and some fancy software.
You can build a nice NAS under $300 (without the drives) It might not be as small or you may not get hard drive hot-swap but it would be decent enough for almost everything.
