Creative professional - first NAS?

#1
Hi NAS compares - the site has been really useful - thank you

So I am about to need to sort out my storage and I think I need to move up to a NAS - below are some current details
I am a small outfit creative professional (artist / graphic designer) - so have large project files that need access to (but not across large groups)
Currently I have a macbook pro with a nearly full 1tb SSD in the machine.

I use a 3TB Toshiba external hard drive for time machine and + store photos
and a 4TB Seagate external hard drive for time machine and + store photos
So I guess I've been using these USB external drives like a primitive RAID 1.
I am looking to free up my SSD on my macbook and then use a NAS as my working machine. I suspect that I will need increase the amount of space I am using at present (so 4 or 6 TB ? this I am unsure and happy to take advice..) and maybe use something like RAID 5 system ? Again happy to take advice.
Thanks , Sam
