Hi
I'm looking for a Nas storage, that will allow me to easily extend the storage space by adding disks
and if possible white list ip-addresses to allow access.

I currently have two 8tb HDD , but expect to extend over another 2 or 3 disks
I'd like to be able to extend the inital volume when addind disks.

I also want to restrict access, i'm familiar with allowing access with account names and passwords. But my LG tv does not prompt for username & password when accessing a restricted share.

Is it possible to whitelist access based on IP address.

I'm new to this so appreciate the advise

Many Thanks

Andrew
The easiest way to expand would be with a plus series NAS such as DS920+ or DS1621+. You can start with 2 or 3 drives and add additional drives as you need extra storage space. If you create a shared folder, you can also set the rules- who can access this data. It can be public or private for each user.If you want to block IP addresses, then you can try this https://www.synology.com/en-uk/knowledgebase/DSM/tutorial/General_Setup/How_do_I_create_firewall_rulesOr consider a Synology router.I hope this helps.
