Synology nas - Enquiries - 07-06-2022
Hi, Great video thanks! I can’t seem to find the answer to these criteria for me I hope you can help! After lots of research I’m pretty sure I want to go for Synology NAS To store my photos at home instead of paying iCloud,but
1) is it true to say that a cheap secondhand Nas from eBay will have an old operating system might not run the new photos app?
2) sinology seems to be the only NAS that will let me have two drives in 2 different locations that mirror each other so I have a back up should my house burn down! Or is a 2 bay NAS set to RAID better even tho the disks are always spinning?
3) linked to the above, my daughter goes to university in sept, would her photos back up to a NAS located at home? All the online info just says ‘photos can be acessed anywhere in the world’ but doesn’t say if the photos have to be on same network to be saved.
Cheers muchly! Dale (Brighton)
