They have Synology NAS, but they wait when I set up some stuff. They have images on one of the drives and we were able to display via network on old tv, but I feel like more stuff could be added.

They talked about cameras in the future too.

    Synology Photos has served me well for years. ThiughI really would like to migrate to Immich, I’m just unsure how to do so with a >1tb photo/video library without doing it over NFS cuz I don’t want to run Immich directly on my NAS and I have an oldish work laptop that would probably crush it if it had more than a 1tb SSD, and like hell am I gonna buy a 2 or 4 tb SSD right now

        I run Immich, along side about 10 other services, on my DS420+, and it runs great imo. The initial import of all my photos (40,000+) did take a long time but now that it’s up and running it’s more than quick enough.

    Drive is nice.

    The photos mobile app is OK.

    Jellyfin on the native docker app works.

      Jellyfin on the native docker app works.

      And if it’s a model without docker capability built in (most of the lower end ones they remove docker support), docker can usually be side loaded fairly easily.

    Honestly running anything that isn’t Synology made on their devices is a pain. Also, without knowing how old the device is, it’s also a challenge to make a recommendation. As the other user replied Jellyfin is a good one, can run music, movies and tv, and home media too.

    Stash is also a good one for grandpa

          Sorry, I thought you were saying it was a pain to setup and run anything else, I disagreed with that. It is performance limited because it is a NAS after all, but still completely functional. I’ve never installed anything on one that it couldn’t handle, but perhaps someone else has. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
