I love how QNAP is competing with Synology both in hardware (using x86, upgradeable RAM, etc) and software but... this is a mixture of so many almost unrelated things that I'm bedazzled. What scenario is there where you can use most of its features? It looks like a very fine machine, no doubt, but it kind'a looks like they just started adding stuff randomly: it's a NAS that specifically uses SSD, also has TWO HDMI ports, it works as a router, it has a built in speaker, does virtual machines, and also offline and live video transcodes via hardware. Wut? I really think that QNAP is way ahead of Synology in a ton of things, but this... what the heck are they selling here?
