    Building a Windows NAS server -- file system problem


    Hi there

    My friend wants me to set up a NAS server for him - but wants to use WINDOWS -- strange choice but it's doable and I suppose it will be less hassle to keep fixing Windows than allowing him to hose up a Linux system if he's never used Linux before.

    Hardware is simple - cube type box, RAID card 4 HDD bays, 1 SSD for boot device, half height Nvidia graphics card-->HDMI and audio output.

    RAID etc no problem - but is there an alternative to the wretched NTFS file system for the HDD arrays.

    I'm currently using this setup on a Linux NAS server.

    There are also some LONG file names which NTFS hoses up totally -- especially on the music files and I really don't want to re-name a whole slew of stuff.

    Any ideas -- at these sorts of HDD sizes NTFS should really be put to bed IMO. Compared with the XFS or EXT4 file systems on Linux performance is rubbish too once you get large HDD's -- however he insists it has to be Windows and he's paying for the hardware etc. !!!!


    Cheers

    SQL Server 2012 Express can't read database files located on NAS after upgrade to windows 10

    Hi,

    I have SQL Server 2012 Express on a pc with windows 8.1. The data base files are located on a NAS. It works fine. After upgrade to windows 10, SQL Server can no longer access the files on the NAS. Access fails with 'operating system 58 error'. Downgraded
    to windows 8.1 and SQL Server works again.

    How do I fix the problem with windows 10?

    NAS server gone after W10 update april 13th 2016

    On april 13th 2016 W10 was automatically updated on my PC

    After completing update my NAS server (Medion MD 86407) didn't react any more: "This map is empty".

    And the NAS server showed a red led. Pointing to a failure.

    Until that update the NAS server worked fine , because I just had used my files on the NAS with my notebook (in our homegroup).

    I did restart the Nas server.

    Followed by a restart of the Provider modem.

    Next I did reset the NAS server.

    Each of all these steps without any result.

    What can I do to solve this problem?
