Which unit to buy RN628X vs RN528X & RR4312X ?
Trying to decide between these 3 models ... does the RN528x have enough CPU /ram power for 4K Transcoding & PLEX Server? as it seems to have less RAM/CPU whereas the RR4312X /RN628X both have similar Xeon (the 628x being faster on some benchmarks) - can we manually update the RAM on the new models? if we purchased 2 RN528X that would give us 16 drive bays at cheaper price then the RN4312X with only 12 bays "most bang for the buck" what is the purpose of the RN628X having 2 1GB & 2 10GB ports ? is this a design flaw ? - if you bond the 2x10GB ports together using LACP 802.3AD for 20GB - why have any 1GB ports on the unit ? can they also be used at the same time? (the RN528X has only 2 10GB ports that act as either 1GB or 10GB - which makes more sense) can the EDA500 be used with the new RNx28 models? unforutnately size/height is an issue (the EDA500 doesn't match height of the previous generation RN516 which causes an issue because we places the switches ontop of the NAS devices ( is there a replacement EDA700 in the works with the same silver color/height? Lastly - comparing the RN716X to the RN628X/RR4312X - am I correct to say the discontinued 716 has a Faster CPU/greater throughput (at a higher price point) then the new RN628X or am I missing something...Solved
