Hi,
I currently have a 916+ and I need more disk bays. I was thinking about buying a DX517 and create a new volume.
The second option is to upgrade to a DS1821+. From what I understand, upgrading from a 916+ to a 1821+ is supported? When using the migration too, does everything is migrated or there is some things I'll have to reconfigure? I have a lot of 3rd party apps and docker containers.
And about the features, will I lose something? I think that everything is an upgrade except the 1821+ doesn't support hardware transcoding (which I don't use). Am I right? Does this mean DS video isn't supported?
Anything I miss ?
And about option 1 (DX517), any experiences to share about it? Since it's half the price of 1821+, it would be more logical... I mean my DS916+ is kind of old but it's been rock solid.
thanks!
