I have a WDMycloudMirror box on very light duty for the last 5ish years and looking for a non WD solution to move to - ideally retaining the existing HDDs (came with WD red 2x 3Tb) as is
I no longer trust or need access via the could/web and I have a router that I can VPN back home when needed.
I already have a back up of the data on another 4TB drive and the SMART data on the current drives is still all 'good'
looking for a more up to date solution that I'll be the admin of as the rest of the family aren't up to that.
I'm generally happy with the tech side of things - I've got no current use case for streaming from the box to a TV or other device but do have home/mobile phone video that would be nice to play back occasionally
budget is tight (hence wanting to keep drives) - I like the idea of a Terramaster brand mainly due to cost and option to install alternative OS but not sure of best way forward.
Thanks
