officeboy Posted January 7, 2015 Share #1 Posted January 7, 2015 I did search, but maybe I missed something. Are there any feature differences from the DS3612xs(64-bit) to the DS214play (X86) I know the 3612 is a few years old hardware, and the DSX14plays have some special encoding features. Are all features available in any version, just enabled by hardware ability? Are there any plans to move the 64bit version to the new DS3615xs?

XPEH Posted January 8, 2015 Share #2 Posted January 8, 2015 Hardware comparing is irrelevant since you are not buying any and building your own. Software (DSM) is the same with drivers compiled to accommodate specific architecture or hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holybabel Posted January 8, 2015 Share #3 Posted January 8, 2015 Hi, ds214play can handle 2 drives, the ds3612xs can handle up to 12 drives. So if you want to handle more than 2 drives you must use the ds3612xs software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
