  • nieco za głośny, jak na warunki domowe, Samodzielne zbudowanie serwera dyskowego o podobnych parametrach będzie tańsze
  • Thecus N5550 to największy i najszybszy NAS spośród tych, które dotąd mieliśmy w testach. Naszym zdaniem zasługuje on w pełni na miano profesjonalnego. Zdajemy sobie sprawę z tego, że dla wielu użytkowników zawodowo zajmujących się serwerami „profesjonaln...

  • Abstract:  Τα NAS συστήματα γίνονται όλο και πιο δημοφιλής, με πολλούς χρήστες μέσα στο 2012 να διαθέτουν ένα στο δίκτυό τους. ...Η Τhecus δεν χρειάζεται καμία εισαγωγή μιας και είναι μια από τις πιο εδραιωμένες επιχειρήσεις στον κλάδο της δικτύωσης. Η Thecus κυκ...

  • Thecus N5550 是定位於中小企業使用,外觀上比較中規中矩,並不像N2520那麼有設計感,不過5個硬碟擴充槽加上完整的軟體應用以及可App掛載,功能完備自然不在話下,但在價格上對於一般消費者而言並不是太便宜,查了一下,大概要2萬多一些台幣,已經可以組裝一台不錯的PC了,畢竟N5550非個人市場取向,以公司而言安裝方便、易管理、不佔空間才是王道,搞不好還能省下MIS的費用。...

  • 在遙控操作的部分,相信怎麼寫一定都不清楚,因此筆者也只好特地錄了這段操作影片啦,簡短的內容拍得不是很好,也沒有美女加持,就請各位多多包涵啦。此篇主要在介紹N5550 NAS的附加功能,讓大家能夠知道以優惠的價格入手這台高階機種之後,還可以做些什麼。NAS可以直接變成多媒體播放器,並且能夠單機進行操作真的是非常地方便,完全打破了以往NAS使用上的思維。透過USB鍵盤/滑鼠在Local Display模組以及XBMC之下的操作都沒有太多的問題。只不過在手機遙控上就來得比較麻煩,畢竟都是透過現有的Apps來達成...

  • 最後,筆者安裝了一些應用程式模組,並來為大家簡單介紹一下,下載並安裝好的模組,要到"模組安裝"選單中去開啟服務並執行。WebDisk就是網頁介面的檔總管,筆者建議一定要安裝此模組,可以透過它來下載/上傳資料,就算在瀏覽器介面下,也還是有自己的右鍵功能選單。Twonky是一套多媒體伺服器的應用程式,能用來彙整NAS裡的多媒體資訊。目前的Twonky可以支援影片與音樂的直接播放。NAS的作業系統(韌體)都是各監廠商自行開發的,是屬於封閉式的系統,因此通常不會有中毒的問題,就算是儲存帶有病毒的檔案,但病毒也是會...
