boy, you are analyzing this way too much. JUST SPEND SOME MONEY ALREADY, and stop reading all the specs.
HGST NAS drives are cheap. WD RED come in 5200 RPM and 7200 RPM – so get the 5200 RPM.
And the QNAP comes in a 12 bay and 16 bay (and 24 bay and 8 bay) rack mount version.
I am just trying to show you something that costs VERY VERY LITTLE MONEY so that you stop researching and just BUY SOMETHING. If I find out in 2018 that you still don’t own something, I am flying to Germany and I am going out drinking with you – and you will be in big trouble the next morning.

March 28, 2017 at 12:26 pm in reply to: Need advise for new 120 TB raid system

I mention the QNAP 871T because it is cheap, and this allows people to buy it, and be assured it works.
Is the Synology RS18016xs+ a better unit – yes it is. But the QNAP TVS-EC1680U-SAS-RP-R2 is better than this
Synology model. And QNAP has newer (and less expensive ) models out that also surpass the RS18016xs+.
For example, the about to be released TS-1685, with 12 bays, up to 128 Gig RAM, 4 SSD Cache drives, free 10Gbase-T ports, and ability to add SAS 12G expander to add 5 more 10 bay RAID chassis. All starting at under $3000 US.

But is the Synology RS18016xs+ a great product, and a great financial deal – YES IT IS. I guess the real point here, is that these Chinese companies (not to exclude the new Netgear ReadyNAS series) are AMAZING, and all a fraction of the price of the traditional companies that we see at the NAB and IBC shows. These cheap products ALL WORK, and all work with all the software that we need for editing, graphics, color grading, etc. It’s amazing.

HGST NAS and WD RED work wonderfully.
Of course, HGST GOLD and Enterprise work perfectly as well.
I keep hearing about Seagate Ironwolf, and how great they are, but I will let someone else
be the guinea pig on these drives.

Brett – Mr. one man band –

the QNAP is DIRT CHEAP. You can get a TS-531 for about 500 bucks and an 8 drive TS-831 for 800 bucks. This is a fraction of the price of any generic Thunderbolt 2 RAID array. Because this is SO cheap, you keep your single drive system at RAID 5 or RAID 6, and then buy a SECOND SYSTEM (both cost less than a single generic Thunderbolt 2
RAID array), and backup with QNAP’s RTRR program, or one of the programs that you are familiar with – like Carbon Copy Cloner, ChronoSync, etc. This way, you have RAID and true BACKUP.

And remember, I am discussing shared storage, not storage for a “one man band” unless you occationally hire a drummer to come in and help you with his laptop running FCP X.

Hi Ronny –
I don’t know how often you are in London, but I did a large QNAP install for Gramafilm (using Premiere, not FCP-X) and they have no issues. What I would REALLY like is for you to get your hands on a QNAP – something like the Jellyfish (but much cheaper) like the QNAP TVS-871T, or 1282T, which has 8 drives, four 1G ports and 2 10G ports, just like the Jellyfish, and TRY IT. The London dealer is https://www.span.com, and if they won’t give you one for eval, let me know, and I will arrange it with QNAP so you can get one without having to pay for it. If going to The Netherlands is more convenient for you, I also did a couple of systems there, that you could check out. Email me, and I will get you contact info directly to them.
