AntiVirus and Indexing causing High CPU and making NAS 214 sluggish.

AntiVirus and Indexing causing High CPU and making NAS 214 sluggish.

Antivirus on 214 along with Indexing is making NAS sluggish...

 

Ideally the product doc says Antivirus will not cause any issues.. But it seems its not  he case.  Is there any fix for this.. except disabling them both.

Model: RN21400|ReadyNAS 214 Series 4- Bay (Diskless)

tbh you can't expect perfect performance two heavy features such as indexing and AV enabled on the cheapest model available.. RN214 is great for basic usage, if you want to use all features and still have good performance go for a more powerful unit.

You could just enable indexing, and then wait for index database to be built.  Then enable AV, and see if the performance is ok.
