Using 8GB of RAM, I can easily start 2 virtual servers and still use the NAS without lag. You need a minimum of 2GB of RAM to use the Virtualization Station. It was way cheaper to do it that way than buy it with 8GB model from QNAP. One note I want to make is I started with the 1GB RAM model of the QNAP TS451 and I upgraded the RAM to 8GB. I’m going to rename this image and copy it to the NAS. I’ve created a folder inside that to clean things up that holds the start up images. When you install the Virtualization Station, QNAP creates a folder for you. Select Windows Server 2012, fill out the registration form and the download will begin. You’ll be directed to a download site and you’ll have to log in with your Microsoft Live ID. If virtualization is something you want as well, hopefully this video answers any questions you have.įirst, search Google for the Windows Server 2012 trial download. When I was shopping around for a new NAS, virtualization was something I wanted, but I wasn’t able to find videos like this that would have made shopping much easier for me.
