We've got a Qnap TS-659 Pro II at a remote facility. It's setup as a NAS with AD integration and it's working fine.
One thing we use it for is for Disk-to-Disk-Tape backups as well as PC image storage. This normally happens after hours so the high network utilization isn't an issue but if we need to do these things during regular hours, it is. Is it possible to connect directly from a 2nd ethernet port on a server to the 2nd ethernet port on the TS-659 to isolate the LAN from some of the backup/image traffic? I know I could setup an iSCSI connection but then what's stored there is only accessible through the iSCSI connected server/pc. Other systems could only access the data through the server as a share. ---------------------- Bob Hartung Dir of I.T.
