QNAP QTS does not support new minimum system requirements to run Roon Server (20 April 2026)

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to read and keep up with all these threads, comments, etc. I’m trying to collect and understand all the devices and use cases everyone has. One thing I’m curious about is how many people have their NAS “near” where they listen to music. For example, I have my QNAP NAS in my basement so plugging in a DAC or HDMI isn’t practical for me. Granted, I bought my QNAP long before I had ever heard of Roon, so I didn’t buy it specifically for this purpose.

Cheers,
Stephen

NOTE: I’m actively testing the docker image on my personal QNAP NAS. I haven’t tested going from the installed Roon QNAP package to the docker image yet, but testing the image so far has worked fairly well on my old QNAP and has been fairly easy and straightforward. Hopefully more details and an initial image will be available this coming week for anyone that wants to give it a try.
