Let me introduce my build
First of all Thank you guys for your help & advises.
So I got my first NAS two years ago. (WD My cloud ex2 ultra) and couple months ago I got WD PR4100... Initially I choose WD just because I had no experience and I got a deal. I wasn't happy with that. I had many problems with almost everything. Customer support is terrible... Very poor OS and etc. Finally I decide to go to Synology and good for me I found this great website and project. Thanks!
Parts list:
1. ASRock Motherboard Motherboards Z370M-ITX/AC ($95.90 + $8.87 Tax = $104.77)
2. Intel i7 8600k (I had 8700k but gave it to my friend on NY) = $259.89
3. EVGA 450 BT, 80+ Bronze 450W = $24.99 + $2.31 = $27.30
4. Patriot Viper Elite Series DDR4 8GB PC4-21300 2666 MHz Memory Module = $53.99 + $4.99 = $58.98
5. Lian-li q25b = $40 (Craiglist)
= $490.94
1.03b + DSM 6.2 + DS3617XS.
Especially want to mention MB. Happy with that. 6SATA + Mini ITX form-factor. Exactly what I want for my case. WIFI + 2 LAN ports. Good price also.
I didn't include HDDs because it's all up to you. But I have 2x2TB Hitachi & 2xWD4TB Red NAS. Now I am testing the system Hitachi's HDD.
Also I want copy/paste my post from my first thread about issues.
I wasn't able to find NAS after first boot.
I did 4 things and problem is gone.
1. Turn off Audio Controller
2. Change priority to onboard graphics.
3. Turnoff bluetooth controller.
4. Turn off wireless adapter.
Please, see pictures. I will glad to know your feedback.
P.S. English is second language. Post can (for sure) have linguistic/grammar mistakes.

I just want to be able to see pictures and some documents sometimes. Is DS Photo doesn't work too, right?
-
I tried to find answer but didn't find it. Looks like using a QC with generated SN is not recommended.
What is the way to get access to my NAS via Android phone?
Thank you guys!

Synology assistant don't see my PC. Any ideas?
-
Hi guys. Synology assistant can't find my storage. Also I tried to find it via website. PC booted up from USB but still can't find anything. (no firewall)
Any ideas?
-
What guide do I have to use?
-
Thank you. So, I will use my old 1GB.
-
Nothing about USB-Drive size in hardware FAQ. 16 Gb USB3 is OK?
-
Just hope it's gonna work. I like this one. Will buy it.

Gigabyte GA-H270N-WIFI is a mini itx Board with 6 SATA connectors. I use it.
Thank you. I am gonna buy ASRock H370M-ITX/ac LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel H370. I need one for 8th gen. Also newegg have filter with number of SATA. Very helpful.
What do you think about that MB?
-
Can't find mini itx MB with 6 sata...
-
What do you think about MSI Performance Gaming Intel Coffee Lake B360 LGA 1151 DDR4 Onboard Graphics Mini-ITX Motherboard (B360I Gaming PRO AC) MB?
It has 4 SATA. Is it mean I can install 4 HDD only?
-
flyride, it's 8086k overclocked to 5.3Ghtz +1080ti. Thank you for your answer. I will done with my build before NY. Want to do that, but have no time (
-
I just not sure how is it work. If PC always stand by can it take 20-30W total? My PC use around 200w and around 500W during playing games.
-
flyride, Thank you. What is idle Power Consumption should I have with 8100t/4HDD/4GbRam?
-
So, even with 8100T NAS wiull use ~200W, right? 24/7? And DS918+ will use only 30W 24/7. Am I right?
Thank you guys.
-
Lexizilla, yeah you are right. If 8700 will take 300W 24 hours it's can cost me ~54 dollars per month. 600+ per year. Not bad for media player ))
With 8100t $36.

If you are streaming and not transcoding the 8700 is overkill
If I will transcoding is 8700 ok? Or should I consider server CPU? What about Ryzen?
-
Thank you. Looks like I will not converting it and just watch it from server on 4k TV.
I will choose motherboard by tomorrow. Will post model name here before buying.
Thanks again for your patience.
I think 8700 is good.
-
Thank you. Looks like I don't understand what is transcoding and why should I use it... :) If you can explain I will appreciate. (already do).
Thank you.
I got my case this morning. Only MB left. Should start this project soon. I SDM too much. I never use it before but for some reasons I think it's good.
-
bearcat, I want to use plex and direct streaming. 8700 is not enough?
I read hardware guide but it's not clear about chipsets and controllers. I believe any modern 1151 motherboard are ok?
Thank you!
Edit: I see Synology 12 bay NAS DiskStation DS2415+ have 4 cores. 8700 should be ok?
Please, explain me about direct streaming and Plex.
