Which NAS too buy? - Enquiries - 09-25-2024
I have a Synology DS214play with two 16tb drives in SHR. I use 3.5tb of my storage. I use my NAS for Plex (I have a lifetime Plex Pass) and mainly for streaming FLAC audio files in and outside the house. I also use the NAS as a backup for my iPhone photos and I have a lot of video material from my youth on it (taken by my dad's camera). Two reasons why I want a new NAS: I want to use Sonic Analysis with Plex. I also want my NAS to support the latest DSM (my NAS goes to DSM7.1). I am thinking about using the NAS for movies and series as well, but I am not sure about that. I will play the movies and series at home on my LG smart TV. So I don't know if I will watch movies and series outside the home. Brand needs to be Synology. I also want my NAS to be future-proof, DSM software to be supported for a long time and there to be enough storage space. I was looking into the DS1522+, DS1621+ and the DS920+. Would like to hear your recommendations.
