The Roon guys did talk about doing a QPKG for Qnap but no mention of timing, etc.
I also posted a thread on this forum that involved running ROON Core on a QNAP 453 Windows virtual machine. Definitely possible and very stable on the higher end QNAP units.
Guillaime, a 451 has a slower processor and memory limitations but I do think it could run. I would advise using a Windows 10 virtual machine as this was significantly more stable and a generally smoother experience than earlier iterations, including Windows Server variants. This will become a moot point when the ROON Qpkg is released.
