NAS for file server - Enquiries - 01-23-2023

I am looking for a reasonably priced NAS that will be used as a file server/storage device. Maybe a handful of machine images as well, but mainly file server type use for our church.

I recently installed a QNAP TS-451D2-4G 4 Bay

I've always used QNAP stuff, so is this the best use of our money for this situation?

Thanks,

Craig

Technically you can use any of they models for file server. The real question here do you need 10gbe and nvme caching. This will limit the options.
If you have 10 or more users connecting to this file server, you may consider caching. 62/ 64 series support this.

I hope this helps.
