Quite a shame but the box is fully usable as it is. Could not find any drivers suitable for them. Some devices remain unknown in Windows Device Manager. No sound via HDMI : using of jack output is a good workaround I will use XPENology or OpenMediavault in a VM if I want advanced file sharing features. I finally don't use QNAP software (but I can switch back to it any day if I decide to). User friendly : I finally use it like a NUC but with 2 HDD slots Hardware acceleration for video transcoding also seems to be present VMs performance are so much greater than with Virtualization Station. After some reading some forums about 251+ using 16GB RAM, I bought 2 sticks of 8GB RAM and have now 16GB RAM recognised by the system and fully usable (even if Intel documentation says that Celeron N3150 supports 8GB RAM max, I can confirm that it works flawlessly) - Reference : Data is on HDD2 which is a SSHD from Seagate Windows is installed on HDD1 which is a SSD 512GB. I then installed VMware workstation on Windows the classical way. (Yes it's possible, you have to hit F2 at NAS startup to access BIOS like any standard PC and change boot disk to any HDD instead of booting the integrated/hidden USB device containing QNAP bootloader) I abandoned the idea to have virtualbox/vmware running on Linux station (too tricky for my skills) but I instead installed Windows 8.1 圆4 as barebone OS on the TS-253A. New Oracle VM VirtualBox 7.0 is available now This latest release is packed with new features, including integration with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), enhanced 3D support, an automated virtual machine (VM) builder, and full VM encryption. But maybe this will interest people anyway I reached my goal, but not at all in the way I intented to.
