New Setup, RN51600 attached with GSM7224-200 Switch
Hi Guys and a big Hello to the forum Ive made my decision getting a RN51600 with 6x3TB WD Red drives, attached to the GSM7224-200 switch for home. Before I go outlay all that money I would like to ...
1) A 24 port switch might be overkill now for you but if you expect to need more ports over time it could be worth it.
2) Do you mean running the VMs on the NAS or using the NAS to store VMs that you will run on your Mac/PC?
3) Both can read/write to the folders. You would probably use SMB/CIFS for your setup.
4) For the most part using a switch should be plug and play. Though if you wish to use teaming there would be a little more work. If you have issues with the setup you can ask here and the community will do our best to help.
5) You can read/write to the USB3 disk. You could even use an eSATA disk if you prefer.
