<br>
Any gotchas with using a small qnap (ts-212 or equivalent non qnap) for myth recordings?<br>
<br>
Any issues for MySQL storage is is that ask for trouble?<br>
<br>
I want to separate my storage from my host so that I can replace parts easily (presently it is one host doing everything).<br>
<br>

<div><br></div><div>I would not recommend using it to store your recordings as it tends to go to sleep pretty regularly when nothing is occurring (i.e. streaming a movie). It periodically wakes up. I think in order to use it for recordings, you would almost want something to access it a minute or so prior to a recording started so it can wake up the drives.</div>
