RN104 Lacking some basic features?
I purchased a RN104 early in December so I could off load SMB shared from a dedicated machine, more for the energy saving (220kwh/m). The transition has gone fairly smoothly new disks for the nas (...
Thanks for the feature requests.
We are using BTRFS for the filesystem. This filesystem has allowed us to add a number of features to assist with data protection such as unlimited snapshots, checksums, bitrot protection etc. Quotas are handled differently with BTRFS. It's my understanding that quotas have been one of the more experimental features of BTRFS. It is a feature I would like to see added.
The ability to easily view disk usage per share would be nice too, but again this isn't as simple as it might sound. It has been requested for a long time, but hasn't been possible since we dropped Share security mode (Share security mode is no longer compatible with new OSes) several years ago.
If you can enable a quota for a protocol e.g. SAMBA that is pretty useless if you have more than one protocol enabled on the NAS.
