Hey guys!
I have a question: I want to buy a Synology DS216J NAS.
My network setup would be:
NAS connected to ROUTER
ROUTER connected to PC.
Since my ROUTER only has 100 Mbit Ethernet ports, my performance would be rather bad. What if I bought a Gigabit Switch and set my network up like this:
NAS connected to GIGABIT-SWITCH
PC connected to GIGABIT-SWITCH
GIGABIT-SWITCH connected to ROUTER.
Would I have better performance or would my traffic from my PC to my NAS still cross my ROUTER?
Thanks in advance,
DarkTron
