I just noticed to some annoyance that when you take photos using portrait mode, the image is reduced to 12MP and files are about 1.6MB. However if you take the same photo in photo mode and then apply auto portrait mode after the fact you get the full 24MP and files are about 2.6MB.

I have been using portrait mode for convenience to avoid having to go back and apply portrait after the fact but am thinking I should use normal photo mode more.

Has anyone noticed any other differences between portrait vs photo/auto portrait modes?

Thank you I saw this thread too. My drives are a bit slower at 5400rpm and most commenters there have 7200rpm and raid 5 which is a bit faster than my raid 6. Also I wasn’t sure how ssd caching helps if at all.

Yes my plan is to get an ax89x which has 2 10gbe ports, a 10gbe card for my nas, and a 10gbe adapter for my MacBook. With only two devices no need for a switch. Good point on reviews I will look around.

 

I am investigating upgrading to a 10G network card in my TS-873 with 8x8tb (seagate 5400rpm shucked from easy stores) Raid 6 and a 2tb SSD cache with the goal of editing photos and videos directly from the NAS instead of managing files locally.

What I am unclear on is what the max speed I would be able to achieve on my system would be and whether I would even get close to saturating 10Gbe/5Gbe/2.5Gbe. Obviously prices for 2.5gbe equipment are way lower so if I can't get faster than 2.5 I'd prefer not to waste the money on 10gbe equipment.
