One crucial factor missing in this discussion is that Synology primarily utilises either Marvel or Intel Atom processors (on most, but not all, models).

Meridian is very specific on what platform their software works on. That is, they only develop for Intel-X64-powered QNAP devices. Moreover, they don't even permit their software to work on AMD-X64-powered QNAP devices.

You know that current Atom used in the Plus series is 64-bit right?

Intel Atom C2538. 64-bit, 4-core 2,4GHz

I see no problem keeping the prereq intel x64.

I can only report on what Meridian told me directly, that the forthcoming MDMS software for QNAP will only work on QNAP (QTS) Intel-X64 processors.

My local PP is having to replace their existing QNAP because it doesn't meet the new Meridian MDMS specs.
