Hello, thank you for your cool website, been watching your you-tube videos for NAS comparisons.
I am not a computer noob, but also don't really get deep into hardware. I've run RAID 1+0 and 5 before on my gaming PC which doubled as home storage, so that's my experience level.
I want to do my first NAS and am considering an off the shelf solution like from UGreen. Looking for safe file storage, maybe a media server. Mostly want to get my family off multiple cloud subscriptions and consolidate to one backup plan for offsite safety. Want something I can expand as I use up space, I might not need a ton.
1GB network switch currently.
Would love to see what you might recommend for a first time NAS setup.
