I really enjoyed watching your Videos.

Considering SSD drives Vs HDD and SSD caching, if required.

At the moment I have a pC with a SSD drive that is networked for file access via a 1GB Ethernet connection.

If I purchase the Synology 920+ and want a fast performance what would you recommend the best set up would be, considering that it would be used for database and word and excel file access mostly. Ideally with a RAID configuration for redundancy.

1TB -2TB max storage.

Thanks for your help
Yes, databases and small files do benefit from SSD setup. You can go for simple SHR or RAID5 setup.
DS920+ is a great NAS, but if you want better speeds you can wait few weeks for ds923+ release. This model can be upgraded with such card.

I hope this helps.
