  NAS for Small Business Backup
Posted by: Enquiries - 06-15-2023, 10:30 AM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (1)

Hi! I am looking for a NAS for a business, primarily to backup files. But the choice between different brands and if a higher price point is worth it is overwhelming.
I am looking for these features:
- storing files on the NAS which can then be accessed from all computers on the network, and remotely through the internet (pictures, contracts, promo material)
- backing up files from one computer which should not be accessed from other computers (CAD drawings and sensitive documents)
- cloud backup
- easy physical backup to a hard drive for most essential files, which will be stored outside of the office as a last resort backup
- automatic backup for phones would be nice to have as those get smashed semi-regularly here

Our data totals less than 300GB at this point, and it was accumulated over 17 years of activity so we do not need too much storage space.
If it is important, I am familiar with basic networking and have also attended a course in uni about it.
Thank you for your time.

I have a DS1821+ Synology, is it possible to use both the NVME slot and the NVME PCIE card in the slot at the same time so i can use one set for cache and one set for storage. I would like to know before i run out and buy the NVME PCIE card.

  DAS - NAS
Posted by: Enquiries - 06-14-2023, 05:00 PM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (1)

Hi, I'm a 6K and 8K video editor, and I use Davinci Resolve 18 with a Mac Studio UltraM1 for editing. I'm looking for a DAS rather than a NAS solution to do my Multicam editing.
Thank you in advance for your advice.

  Upgrading storage for an archive
Posted by: Enquiries - 06-14-2023, 11:30 AM - Forum: Before you buy Q&A - Replies (1)

Hi, first off love your site! I work for a small personal archive (1 or 2 employees), digitising photographic media, video and music. Our current setup uses Promise Pegasus Thunderbolt RAID DAS units (Pegasus R6 & a Pegasus2 R8) backed up to Terramaster D5-300 units which have given pretty faultless service over the last few years, but I'm running out of space and as these are old units now which don't support large drive sizes then we need to upgrade. I've always gone the DAS route so as to keep the archive offline but am now wondering about a desktop NAS which I will just use on the LAN. I'd combine all the data from the two Promise units onto one large NAS/DAS which will be the main "server" using RAID6, backed up to another unit locally with periodic backups to a third unit off-site via VPN. The new T9-450 sounds good so maybe just get 3 of those, or maybe 2 and a D8 T3 or D8-332?
