help purchase choice.

hello everyone.

considered my needs to use the nas the choice is addressed to these two models TVS-463 and TVS-471.
my doubt is the AMD model TVS-X63, since I have always opted for intel processors.
someone, kindly, could tell me their experience with this AMD processor, you think it's worth venturing?
I would not make a charge and then repent.
thank you.

Price wise here in the UK the AMD is approx 300 UKP cheaper than the 471 (i3) as pricing is shown today on some UK sites. Apart from Processors i would say the feature set is very similar. I dont think both the x71 or the x63 are actually in stock until mid Feb by the earliest.

They are not available so cannot comment on the x63 model.

considered my needs

What are your needs? AMD's processors are nice but simply not as strong as Intel's. However, I believe people purchase way more processor than they actually need. Maybe you should try out the model before upgrading! I know I should have.

Hello.
I have got the same dilemma. I would like to be able to run 1 Windows VM and 2 or 3 Linux VMs at the same time (with TVS-663 or TVS-671 and 16GB RAM).
What is the exact AMD processor which is build in TVS-X63 ?
Best Regards
Chris

Hi,
The TVS-x63 performance and MSRP are between TVS-x71 & TS-x53 Pro.
They all can run multiple VMs.
The AMD processor on TVS-x63 is the top of the line SKU from the G-series APU family.
It is quad-core 2.4GHz with only 25W TDP and supports hardware encryption, transcoding, and AMD-V for virtualization, with an additional PCIe slot for network expansion.
The TVS-x63 can also support max 2 UX-800P for storage expansion if you run out of storage in the future.

If you have the budget, then going with TVS-x71 is also good because it will be a more powerful NAS with various CPU options. If you need hardware encryption, then you must go with the i3 and above. The overall software features are almost identical.

Is the TVS-463 better then the TS-453 Pro ? In all functions?

Hi mkbr1,
Yes, TVS-463 is better than TS-453 Pro in these aspects:
quad-core 2.4 GHz APU design
PCIe slot for optional quad LAN or 10GbE ports
hardware-based encryption acceleration
Dual HDMI 1080P mirrored output
Radeon graphics
Upscale exterior metal finish
