[H] 8GB RAM on NAS
I am planning a Synology DS916+ 4 bay purchase. This is for media streaming/recording, security cameras, data backup on a Single User LAN. I have a choice of 2GB RAM or 8GB of Ram at a difference of $100. Do I need 8GB or RAM on a single user network...maybe for 4K in the future?... Or not.
Re: [H] 8GB RAM on NAS
Can you add the RAM yourself later? More memory is most always a good thing. It comes down to how dear the $100 is… Al From: Winterlight Sent: Tuesday, October 10, 2017 1:39 PM To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: [H] 8GB RAM on NAS I am planning a Synology DS916+ 4 bay purchase.

You probably only need the extra ram if you want to run apps on the unit itself. (Like Plex, etc) On Tue, Oct 10, 2017 at 01:58:20PM -0500, Al E.
