swanduron Posted April 25, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 25, 2016 Hi guys, I seen some AMD MBs are suitable for the NAS platform, such as ASUS E35M1-I. I very concern the performance of code converting in Video Center and Disk Array speed. Anyone can give me suggestions for this solution? Thanks.

valix Posted April 25, 2016 Share #2 Posted April 25, 2016 As usual: It depends. First, DSM does not benefit of hw accelartion of the gpu. That means everything is de-/en-/transcoded by the cpu. The CPU is qiet weak, but low resolution and low bitrade transcoding would be possible I guess. To compare, I had run a athlon 5350, that have the double of cores and a little highe frequency and transcoding of a 720p TV stream to 600p + 1500kbps causes 60-80% CPU load. A SD TV stream only 30 to 50 %. I doubt that a E-350 would get along with HD-video. I wouldn't concern the disk array speed, every low budget hardware is able to bring gigabit ethernet to its limits.

Gronaldo Posted May 7, 2016 Share #3 Posted May 7, 2016 For all the usual stuff the E-350 is fine (I even run a C-70). As stated above, transcoding will be the bottleneck. More general, a A4-5300 is great, higher models even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
