What RAID is best for my needs - Enquiries - 05-22-2023

Hello, I am considering a QNAP TS-464 for home use, backups, games, possibly media for 2 users. I have seen a lot of discussion between RAID 10 and 5 for a 4 bay. What RAID configuration would you recommend for this type of use?

Thank you for your time.

I would choose RAID5. Sometimes RAID10 can be fragile. Without a proper backup I would not use it.
