Article: Review | Running a Large Roon Library on a QNAP TVS-872XT

I find this VERY interesting.   Why QNAP?  What about Synology, or others?

Hi Bob, I've used QNAP, Synology, FreeNAS, openMediaVault, and many others over the years. In my experience QNAP has the best hardware and equal software to Synology. The others are more DIY solutions that can be equally as valid if the user wants to go that route. Roon installs very easily on QNAP and people can just add to cart if they want to go this route. 

 

Perhaps I need to work on an article for those of us who have fun putting together all the pieces of the puzzle and messing with the software. Roon can be a little harder to install on such devices though. 

 

If someone isn't using Roon core on the NAS, then the options open up even more. 

I think that is a good idea.  I am currently keeping my music on my Qnap NAS and the Roon Core box pulls from there.
