QNAP TS-364 NAS - Should You Buy It?

The QNAP TS-364 NAS Drive Written Review -nascompares.com/2021/12/08/qn...
QNAP TS-364 NAS Video Review FULL - • QNAP TS-364 NAS Review...
QNAP are now very much in the process of slowly rolling out their new Prosumer and SMB series for 2022, but when it comes to the unit that they are slowly releasing, you can definitely see that they are being a great deal smarter (tactically) than previous generations. Alongside the release of the NVMe focused TBS-464 back in late October, the next unit in this series to arrive is the incredibly unique and unusual QNAP TS-364 NAS Drive. Today I want to review this rather different NA system and ultimately answer three main questions, 1) Is this a suitable alternative to a 2/4-Bay? 2) Is this TOO niche, even for a subject that is already as niche as NAS? And 3) Ultimately does it deserve your data? This 3x Hard drive and 2x NVMe SSD system (that 2nd storage detail is always way, way too overlooked) is formed in a similar shape to the previous 3-Bay systems before it but also arrives with the latest choices in internal/external hardware architecture that we have grown to expect in 2021/2022 from QNAP. With some users who look at 2-Bay solutions and the 50% storage loss of RAID 1 as a dealbreaker, whilst still looking at 4-Bay systems as capacity and price based overkill, is a 3-Bay NAS drive such as the TS-364 from QNAP what you have been searching for all this time? Let’s review the QNAP TS-364 and decide if this system is just right OR just a little too niche? Let’s go.

Thank you for the advice always trying to avoid A nightmare before Christmas or at any other time
Ah, truly A Nightmare Before Christmas those seagulls be, especially when you're Home Alone! Many thanks for all your helpful videos! Great work!
Hope you have no Nightmare before Christmas, appreciate the content as always.
I can't wait to be Home Alone watching A nightmare Before Christmas, after a good dose of this channel!
Nightmare before Christmas, yesss when the outlaws come over.
A nightmare before christmas. Nice video i am looking for a nas for weeks now
I'm really starting to like this nas i going to take the plunge soon. Hopefully it won't be a "Nightmare before Christmas" Great vid.
"Nightmare Before Christmas" Thanks for the work you do, all the best
A Nightmare Before Christmas, happy New Year!
I mainly record some online pc gaming. I edit with Radeon, and upload via streamable. I am not streaming. I don’t want to constantly have to delete files from my ssd. What nas would you suggest for me? It would be my first as well. Right now I’m using a 4tb external qvo ssd.
A nightmare before Christmas, would be me being home alone and the interweb goes down and I can't view this amazing chanel with wicked content.
Any idea if you can connect 5gbe via USB card ?
So, in light of QNAP targeting the Prosumer market with this 3-bay (which suites me down to the ground for size) do you think Synology may follow in the same vane during 2022 to keep market share ?? Pity they don'y have good designers for the exteriors of their units, white is so off putting and is pretty much a dirt/fingerprint magnet. Love the idea but their implementation as to accessibility leaves a lot to be desired, if Synology took the DS420+ and made it a 320+ could be the goods.
Thank you as always! I like the hardware - I hate the design. Is it possible to make a video comparing this with the QNap TS-453D please? It's the one I was going for before I watched this one
Is this model support non-oficial ram sticks?
Gotta love that Boogie man from A Nightmare Before Christmas, scary like that sweet NAS.
Hi, a question about USB 3.2 ports: is it possible to connect a PC directly to the USB ports, like on TS-453BT3?
I have a DS213j, which by today’s standards is a Nightmare. Before Christmas, I’d like to get something like the NAS that you discussed today, which looks like a great alternative.
A Nightmare Before Christmas .. Qnap always give us a festive feeling :P
Has anybody found this for sale anywhere?
One issue I have with my 332X does not support RAID conversion. You have to backup and restore. I ended up getting another 443X and three more 6Tb drives then setting that one with RAID and copying everything from the first NAS over. I then had to reinstall and reconfigure the Apps as well. Finally. I set the first NAS up as a mirrored copy. A fifteen-hundred-dollar solution to the issue! Finding external 6Tb drives is impossible right now.
I was thinking of starting with this and 2 drives with RAID 1. Would I see a huge improvement with a RAID5 when it comes to speed performance? would using the nvme drives for cache help improve a RAID1? I think that I'd end up with a RAID 5 and 3 drives at some point, but I'm not sure if I'd need to start with that.
Hi, what would be the recommendation QNAP TS-364 or older Synology DS920+?
So here down under in the colony we don't get the usual snow, sleet and rain but we do get bushfires, droughts with flies, flies and more flies - truly A Nightmare Before Christmas
Does it perform better than the 453d? Is it a better purchase today?
Never used a QNAP before. Just have an old wd nas and it's still served it's purpose till this day. Thought might just used it for 2nd backup. The Nightmare before Christmas was the title?
I've switched from an old DS215j to the TS-364 because it was on sale for 390£ and I'm quite happy. I'd say 2x M.2 and 3x 3.5 inch bays are the perfect combination. My only concern is that the NAS feels a bit cheap, and likes to resonate with my Enterprise drives which is not ideal. Oh and the M.2 slots are NVMe ONLY, not SATA, which is unfortunate.
I bought this NAS a week ago and I am returning the unit. When using HBS (to copy SSD backups of MacBooks) I get NAS out of memory errors and the system eventually crashes. Or just doing background tasks for QuMagie. I give up. I ordered a Synology DS-920+.
It’s going to to be -32c with a windchill of -42c here tonight; an absolute cold one which is A nightmare before Christmas, I will Not be Home Alone tonight but may be a grinch given the circumstances. Not overly fond of the 3 bay; could you do a video on DA drive analyzer?
Should i buy a ds920+ or wait for a ds922+ ?
Seriously please guide or share a link on where to buy this product! Qnap e-commerce doesn't have it or even list it! And neither does Amazon or Newegg!! So please if you know where to buy it that would be awesome and many thanks for your amazing NAS videos
A Nightmare Before Christmas indeed. Great video as always. Can an M.2 drive be used as primary storage for the OS and apps so that, for example, you can use all-surveillance HDDs and they would be doing little to no read at all during normal operation?

@@QNAPUK I guess that's why my next NAS would also be a QNAP (rather than Synology where it's only for caching - I trust both brands, but this is an extra bit of flexibility I plan to use. Oh, and 2.5GbE). I'd like to see the TS-464, though :)
Fast USB so you will not have Nightmare before Christmas, but we do not want to listen you say Home alone :)
Never seen A nightmare before Christmas!
The film was The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Could it be 'Nightmare before Christmas'?. 'I hate seagulls' is not a movie.
I'm confused why one would buy a cheaper model like this if you were going to spend money buying M2 upgrades, etc...what exactly do they offer you with only 2.5GBe? Wouldn't 3 mechanical hard drives in RAID saturate that bandwidth without assistance? Am I missing something?
USB backup in front seems to be a match for mechanical drives rather than SSD. Curious, can the USB 3.2 gen 2 ports on the back use an 10g Ethernet adapter?

SSD on gen 1 ssd is fuking rapid. Most SSD's CANNOT sustain enough to fill it. Sure they can burst it for 30 seconds but speed drops down a lot.
This is giving me a nightmare before Christmas rofl.
My xpenology rig is a nightmare before Christmas so winning something better would make for a happy new year.
A Nightmare Before Christmas That NAS may be a niche, but it has a lot to be quite useful. Definitely has possibilities. Wonder if the SSDs are better as caches or storage.

As with everything seem to be a usage case question.
I wouldn't want to have a Nightmare Before Christmas... Shame about the 10G ports.
Definitely Tim button's nightmare before Christmas. 🤔 I wonder if yify has it in 2160p...
A Nightmare Before Christmas Interesting machine especially as a "under the TV NAS" for movies and stuff.
Nightmare before Christmas. This would be a good candidate as a second NAS (backup).
I can't seem to find it for less than 500+ euro...

Not watching your channel and buying the wrong NAS might end up being A Nightmare Before Christmas.
It's a "Nightmare before Christmas". Dem backups.

Losing data is a nightmare anytime, whether it's a "Nightmare before Christmas", or a Nightmare after New Year's, or even a Nightmare on Halloween. In every hard drive there lives a goblin just waiting to devour the unprepared. Be prepared with your own set of Ready Always Insulating Demons (RAID)
The other issue is that connecting a UPS consumes one of your precious USB ports for monitoring! an expensive solution to a critical issue.
nightmare before christmas?

Nightmare before Christmas. I guess it takes all kinds, even Tim Burton fans... *wink, wink*
The lack of 10Gb is a deal-breaker for me. Since I already have a 332X I would be better served with another 332X.

I am curious if one of the 3.2 gen 2 USB ports on the back can take a 10g Ethernet adapter and function as such.
Definitely Home Alone this time.
I love your reviews... and please don't take this as me being mean. please do something with your teeth. It's so distracting.
I will never buy another QNAP NAS after my first and last one failed and thew way i was treated when looking for support - there are so many better less hyped options, besides that this guy is owned by QNAP and is nothing more than a puppet....
we know QNAP devices shouldn't be use for not offering any minimum decent level of security (hard coded credentials, apps running as root). I know you are sponsored by QNAP, but if you care about your subscribers you should stop reviewing and promoting QNAP devices. Doesn't how good their hardware look and cost it's a software drama (not just security but also plenty of usability bugs). We need more honest reviews than don't obmit important stuff like the security track records of this joke company.

Thanks for your thoughts man. Just to be clear though, I am not sponsored by QNAP and though they send these units from time to time, I am completely independent. Regarding security, if I removed brands from this channel based on security flaws, vulnerabilities, hacks, malware and times that data was lost - I WOULD HAVE TO REMOVE ALL OF THEM! Syno hacks, seagate 1.5TB fails, WD SMR, Drobo support, Google outrages, OneDrive Password exposure, DropBox open sync vulnerabilities....honestly, I cannot think of a single brand that hasn't dropped the ball... Yes, QNAP have been the flavour of the month on this topic, but the wheel will spin again and others will come, they come round again and so on and so forth. Remember, brands can ONLY stay 1 step ahead from those looking to break the code. Imagine if started EVERY review, all brands and listed the security flaws/blips in the last 10yrs? I'd never actually GET to the product. Even a glimpse here, on the NC vulnerability tracker, will show you just a handful of brands - nascompares.com/security-advisories/ In short, I do get that you have an opinion of this brand and it's justified/backed up. But don't think I'm not keeping these things in mind.
