And share it with my family. Furthermore, Otherwise no heavy task.
- Types of devices to be connected: Android & iOS phone , Windows laptop & Android TV will be connected

Hi. Thank you in advance. I've gone down the NAS rabbit hole and feel a bit lost. I'm looking to ditch my cloud service but can't figure out which NAS is best for me. I design custom homes and need somewhere to store/backup files as well as access them remotely. I'd also like to store my photos and videos and be able to access those on my mobile if possible. The max. amount of space I need is 4TB as I'm barely using 1 TB at the moment. Love your videos btw and appreciate your advice. I was going to go with Synology but so many say the speeds are slow accessing files remotely.

Drobo 5N2 to Unifi NAS |

With StorCentric filing for Chapter 7, I’m looking to migrate data from my Drobo 5N2 to a UniFi NAS Pro and integrate a cloud storage solution for cold storage.
Do you have any recommendations for a smooth transition?
I’m considering a network-based transfer and would need bidirectional syncing between the NAS devices, as well as a plan for organizing and migrating data to cloud storage.
Here are the details:
Storage Capacity: I need to migrate around 10-14TB of data into a new setup with 77TB total capacity.
Network & Bandwidth: The network is multi-gig capable, with broadband capped at 1.2 Gbps download and 500 Mbps upload. Internal structured cabling is CAT6, which should support a fast transfer speed within my network.
Power Redundancy: Each device has a 950W redundant power supply. However, UPS backup for the entire site is limited to 15 minutes, so worried if there are any longer transfer windows.
Broadband Redundancy: The site is primarily serviced by Comcast Business, wi

Help selecting a NAS for Home Applications |

I just bought a new DELL XPS desktop PC using Windows 11 and MS 365. I want a NAS for the following uses:
1. Back up PC 1Tb hard drive using RDrive software. This is in addition to the 1 Tb backup that Microsoft provides with MS365. RDrive takes a bit by bit image of your drive which allows one to rebuild the machine and install all of the apps.
2. I eventually want to get 8 security cameras and would like to use the NAS as a DVR for the cameras
3. I want to get more storage for saving home video's of the kids, etc.
I am looking at the QNAP 462 and QNAP 464. I have two new WD RED PRO 4 Tb drives and two new Crucial MX500 1Tb SDD's in my old PC. I would like to use the WD 4Tb as RAID 1 NAS back up storage. I may or may not use the Crucial SDD's or buy say 10 Tb drives(?) for a RAID 1 NAS storage.
Is there any advantage of the QNAP 464 over the QNAP 462 for my application? I won't ever be using a Virtual machine or PLEX stuff. Should I look for a different NAS?

Replacing old QNAP and Drives |

Bought a QNAP TS-863U in 2017 for personal use that mainly stores video files and surveillance camera recordings. It has 8x8TB storage in RAID6. 3 drives have been replaced since purchase. I have multiple pcs in my house running Kodi with a shared database for tracking watched videos via SMB. I want to be proactive and replace the system and upsize the drives while I'm doing it. Min 8x14TB, ideally higher (looking for some future proofing). Looking at HDD holiday deals for best $/TB. Beginner level here, so not sure which QNAP bests fits my needs and if I should move to QuTS Hero or stay QTS. Suggestions on new QNAP NAS?

Looking for 1st NAS, biased to Synology due to belief their software is better/simpler? than others. Use will be docs and movies initially trying more advanced capabilities as knowledge develops. The DS1511+ seems to be the option based upon your reviews and thoughts. My question is does the 1511 need hardware transcoding assistance or is it fine for a household with 1 large 4k tv?
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
