[QUOTE="Moonracer, post: 494753, member: 86360"] I'm seriously considering purchasing the Synology DS409 and running a 4TB Raid 1 NAS with 4 2TB drives. The Synology products I've read and heard from friends are very good and they seem to be the way to go for NAS. My question is, would RAID 1 offer enough performance for Blu-ray material. I own a WD 2TB RAID 0 External and the RAID 1 (1TB with two drives) did not offer enough performance to run Blu-ray content. I've been told that Synology's RAID controller is far superior but I'd like to hear from someone here that they have successfully ran RAID 1 off one of these boxes and was able to play BD content. These devices don't offer RAID 10 per their website and I don't want the hassle of trying to rebuild a RAID-5. No experience with RAID 6. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! mr [/QUOTE]
